Commit f77084d96355 "x86/mm/pat: Disable preemption around
__flush_tlb_all()" addressed a case where __flush_tlb_all() is called
without preemption being disabled. It also left a warning to catch other
cases where preemption is not disabled. That warning triggers for the
memory hotplug path which is also used for persistent memory enabling:

 WARNING: CPU: 35 PID: 911 at ./arch/x86/include/asm/tlbflush.h:460
 RIP: 0010:__flush_tlb_all+0x1b/0x3a
 [..]
 Call Trace:
  phys_pud_init+0x29c/0x2bb
  kernel_physical_mapping_init+0xfc/0x219
  init_memory_mapping+0x1a5/0x3b0
  arch_add_memory+0x2c/0x50
  devm_memremap_pages+0x3aa/0x610
  pmem_attach_disk+0x585/0x700 [nd_pmem]

Rather than audit all __flush_tlb_all() callers to add preemption, just
do it internally to __flush_tlb_all().
