x86, vm86: fix preemption bug



Commit 3d2a71a5 ("x86, traps: converge
do_debug handlers") changed the preemption disable logic of do_debug()
so vm86_handle_trap() is called with preemption disabled resulting in:

 BUG: sleeping function called from invalid context at include/linux/kernel.h:155
 in_atomic(): 1, irqs_disabled(): 0, pid: 3005, name: dosemu.bin
 Pid: 3005, comm: dosemu.bin Tainted: G        W  2.6.29-rc1 #51
 Call Trace:

 BUG: scheduling while atomic: dosemu.bin/3005/0x10000001

Restore the original calling convention and reenable preemption before
calling handle_vm86_trap().
