sched, kvm: Fix race condition involving sched_in_preempt_notifers



In finish_task_switch(), fire_sched_in_preempt_notifiers() is
called after finish_lock_switch().

However, depending on architecture, preemption can be enabled after
finish_lock_switch() which breaks the semantics of preempt
notifiers.

So move it before finish_arch_switch(). This also makes the in-
notifiers symmetric to out- notifiers in terms of locking - now
both are called under rq lock.
