Jann Horn 586b58cac8 exit: Move preemption fixup up, move blocking operations down
With CONFIG_DEBUG_ATOMIC_SLEEP=y and CONFIG_CGROUPS=y, kernel oopses in
non-preemptible context look untidy; after the main oops, the kernel prints
a "sleeping function called from invalid context" report because
exit_signals() -> cgroup_threadgroup_change_begin() -> percpu_down_read()
can sleep, and that happens before the preempt_count_set(PREEMPT_ENABLED)
fixup.

It looks like the same thing applies to profile_task_exit() and
kcov_task_exit().

Fix it by moving the preemption fixup up and the calls to
profile_task_exit() and kcov_task_exit() down.

README

Linux kernel
============

There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can
be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read
Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first.

In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``.  The formatted documentation can also be read online at:

    https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/

There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation.

Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the
requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about
the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
