sched: Make sleeping inside spinlock detection working in !CONFIG_PREEMPT
Select CONFIG_PREEMPT_COUNT when we enable the sleeping inside spinlock detection, so that the preempt offset gets correctly incremented/decremented from preempt_disable()/preempt_enable(). This makes the preempt count eventually working in !CONFIG_PREEMPT when that debug option is set and thus fixes the detection of explicit preemption disabled sections under such config. Code that sleeps in explicitly preempt disabled section can be finally spotted in non-preemptible kernels. Signed-off-by: Frederic Weisbecker <fweisbec@gmail.com> Acked-by: Paul E.
