The change is:
| config PREEMPT_RCU
| bool
|- default y if PREEMPTION
|+ default y if (PREEMPT || PREEMPT_RT || PREEMPT_DYNAMIC)

Now:
- CONFIG_PREEMPT select PREEMPT_BUILD
- PREEMPT_RT select CONFIG_PREEMPTION
- PREEMPT_DYNAMIC selects PREEMPT_BUILD

and PREEMPT_BUILD select CONFIG_PREEMPTION

so in the end, this change is a nop, right?
