Hello gentlemen,

Commit 589a606f9539663f162e4a110d117527833b58a4 ("percpu: add preemption
checks to __this_cpu ops") added preempt check to used in __count_vm_events()
__this_cpu ops, causing the following kswapd warning:

 BUG: using __this_cpu_add() in preemptible [00000000] code: kswapd0/56
 caller is __this_cpu_preempt_check+0x2b/0x2d

list_lru_walk_node() seems to be the only place where __count_vm_events()
called with preemption enabled. remaining __count_vm_events() and
__count_vm_event() calls are done with preemption disabled (unless I
overlooked something).
