arm64: preempt: Fix big-endian when checking preempt count in assembly
Commit 39624469 ("arm64: preempt: Provide our own implementation of asm/preempt.h") extended the preempt count field in struct thread_info to 64 bits, so that it consists of a 32-bit count plus a 32-bit flag indicating whether or not the current task needs rescheduling. Whilst the asm-offsets definition of TSK_TI_PREEMPT was updated to point to this new field, the assembly usage was left untouched meaning that a 32-bit load from TSK_TI_PREEMPT on a big-endian machine actually returns the reschedule flag instead of the count. Whilst we could fix this by pointing TSK_TI_PREEMPT at the count field, we're actually better off reworking the two assembly users so that they operate on the whole 64-bit value in favour of inspecting the thread flags separately in order to determine whether a reschedule is needed.
