preempt_mask.h defines all the preempt_count semantics and related symbols: preempt, softirq, hardirq, nmi, preempt active, need resched, etc... preempt.h defines the accessors and mutators of preempt_count. But there is a messy dependency game around those two header files: * preempt_mask.h includes preempt.h in order to access preempt_count() * preempt_mask.h defines all preempt_count semantic and symbols except PREEMPT_NEED_RESCHED that is needed by asm/preempt.h Thus we need to define it from preempt.h, right before including asm/preempt.h, instead of defining it to preempt_mask.h with the other preempt_count symbols. Therefore the preempt_count semantics happen to be spread out. * We plan to introduce preempt_active_[enter,exit]() to consolidate preempt_schedule*() code. But we'll need to access both preempt_count mutators (preempt_count_add()) and preempt_count symbols (PREEMPT_ACTIVE, PREEMPT_OFFSET). The usual place to define preempt operations is in preempt.h but then we'll need symbols in preempt_mask.h which already includes preempt.h. So we end up with a ressource circle dependency. Lets merge preempt_mask.h into preempt.h to solve these dependency issues. This way we gather semantic symbols and operation definition of preempt_count in a single file. This is a dumb copy-paste merge. Further merge re-arrangments are performed in a subsequent patch to ease review.
