sched: Separate the scheduler entry for preemption
Block-IO and workqueues call into notifier functions from the scheduler core code with interrupts and preemption disabled. These calls should be made before entering the scheduler core. To simplify this, separate the scheduler core code into __schedule(). __schedule() is directly called from the places which set PREEMPT_ACTIVE and from schedule(). This allows us to add the work checks into schedule(), so they are only called when a task voluntary goes to sleep.
