module: Remove preempt_disable() from module reference counting.
The preempt_disable() section in module_put() was added in commit
e1783a240f491 ("module: Use this_cpu_xx to dynamically allocate counters")
while the per-CPU counter were switched to another API. The API requires
that during the RMW operation the CPU remained the same.
This counting API was later replaced with atomic_t in commit
2f35c41f58a97 ("module: Replace module_ref with atomic_t refcnt")
Since this atomic_t replacement there is no need to keep preemption
disabled while the reference counter is modified.
Remove preempt_disable() from module_put(), __module_get() and
try_module_get().
