sched/core: Avoid __schedule() being called twice in a row
[ Upstream commit 2bb94c48b2ffaabf8c15a51e5cc1b4c541988cab ] If a worker invokes schedule() then we may have the call chain: schedule() -> sched_submit_work() -> wq_worker_sleeping() -> wake_up_worker() -> wake_up_process(). The last wakeup may cause a schedule which is unnecessary because we are already in schedule() and do it anyway. Add a preempt_disable() + preempt_enable_no_resched() around wq_worker_sleeping() so the context switch could be delayed until __schedule().
