LoongArch: Prevent cond_resched() occurring within kernel-fpu
When CONFIG_PREEMPT_COUNT is not configured (i.e. CONFIG_PREEMPT_NONE/ CONFIG_PREEMPT_VOLUNTARY), preempt_disable() / preempt_enable() merely acts as a barrier(). However, in these cases cond_resched() can still trigger a context switch and modify the CSR.EUEN, resulting in do_fpu() exception being activated within the kernel-fpu critical sections, as demonstrated in the following path: dcn32_calculate_wm_and_dlg() DC_FP_START() dcn32_calculate_wm_and_dlg_fpu() dcn32_find_dummy_latency_index_for_fw_based_mclk_switch() dcn32_internal_validate_bw() dcn32_enable_phantom_stream() dc_create_stream_for_sink() kzalloc(GFP_KERNEL) __kmem_cache_alloc_node() __cond_resched() DC_FP_END() This patch is similar to commit d021985 (x86/fpu: Improve crypto performance by making kernel-mode FPU reliably usable in softirqs). It uses local_bh_disable() instead of preempt_disable() for non-RT kernels so it can avoid the cond_resched() issue, and also extend the kernel-fpu application scenarios to the softirq context.
