sched: Teach might_sleep() about preemptible RCU

In practice, it is harmless to voluntarily sleep in a
rcu_read_lock() section if we are running under preempt rcu, but
it is illegal if we build a kernel running non-preemptable rcu.

Currently, might_sleep() doesn't notice sleepable operations
under rcu_read_lock() sections if we are running under
preemptable rcu because preempt_count() is left untouched after
rcu_read_lock() in this case. But we want developers who test
their changes under such config to notice the "sleeping while
atomic" issues.

So we add rcu_read_lock_nesting to prempt_count() in
might_sleep() checks.
