remove PREEMPT_RESTRICT. (this is a separate commit so that any
regression related to the removal itself is bisectable)
Signed-off-by: Ingo Molnar <mingo@elte.hu>

PREEMPT_RESTRICT was a method aimed at reducing the amount of wakeup
related preemption. It has a disadvantage though, it can prevent
legitimate wakeups if a task is 'unlucky' to be hit too early by a tick
that clears peer_preempt.

Now that the wakeup preemption has been cleaned up we dont seem to have
excessive preemptions anymore, so this feature can be turned off. (and
removed in the next patch)

Yanmin Zhang reported an aim7 regression and bisected it down to:

 |  commit 38ad464d
 |  Author: Ingo Molnar <mingo@elte.hu>
 |  Date:   Mon Oct 15 17:00:02 2007 +0200
 |
 |     sched: uniform tunings
 |
 |     use the same defaults on both UP and SMP.

fix this by reintroducing similar SMP tunings again. This resolves
the regression.

Since powerpc started using CONFIG_GENERIC_CLOCKEVENTS, the
deterministic CPU accounting (CONFIG_VIRT_CPU_ACCOUNTING) has been
broken on powerpc, because we end up counting user time twice: once in
timer_interrupt() and once in update_process_times().

This fixes the problem by pulling the code in update_process_times
that updates utime and stime into a separate function called
account_process_tick.  If CONFIG_VIRT_CPU_ACCOUNTING is not defined,
there is a version of account_process_tick in kernel/timer.c that
simply accounts a whole tick to either utime or stime as before.  If
CONFIG_VIRT_CPU_ACCOUNTING is defined, then arch code gets to
implement account_process_tick.

This also lets us simplify the s390 code a bit; it means that the s390
timer interrupt can now call update_process_times even when
CONFIG_VIRT_CPU_ACCOUNTING is turned on, and can just implement a
suitable account_process_tick().

account_process_tick() now takes the task_struct * as an argument.
Tested both with and without CONFIG_VIRT_CPU_ACCOUNTING.

we lost the sched_min_granularity tunable to a clever optimization
that uses the sched_latency/min_granularity ratio - but the ratio
is quite unintuitive to users and can also crash the kernel if the
ratio is set to 0. So reintroduce the min_granularity tunable,
while keeping the ratio maintained internally.

no functionality changed.
