x86, vm86: fix preemption bug
Commit 3d2a71a596bd9c761c8487a2178e95f8a61da083 ("x86, traps: converge do_debug handlers") changed the preemption disable logic of do_debug() so vm86_handle_trap() is called with preemption disabled resulting in: BUG: sleeping function called from invalid context at include/linux/kernel.h:155 in_atomic(): 1, irqs_disabled(): 0, pid: 3005, name: dosemu.bin Pid: 3005, comm: dosemu.bin Tainted: G W 2.6.29-rc1 #51 Call Trace: [<c050d669>] copy_to_user+0x33/0x108 [<c04181f4>] save_v86_state+0x65/0x149 [<c0418531>] handle_vm86_trap+0x20/0x8f [<c064e345>] do_debug+0x15b/0x1a4 [<c064df1f>] debug_stack_correct+0x27/0x2c [<c040365b>] sysenter_do_call+0x12/0x2f BUG: scheduling while atomic: dosemu.bin/3005/0x10000001 Restore the original calling convention and reenable preemption before calling handle_vm86_trap().
