Powerpc currently resets a CPU's idle task preempt_count to 0 before said task starts executing the secondary startup routine (and becomes an idle task proper). This conflicts with commitf1a0a376ca("sched/core: Initialize the idle task with preemption disabled"). which initializes all of the idle tasks' preempt_count to PREEMPT_DISABLED during smp_init(). Note that this was superfluous before said commit, as back then the hotplug machinery would invoke init_idle() via idle_thread_get(), which would have already reset the CPU's idle task's preempt_count to PREEMPT_ENABLED. Get rid of this preempt_count write.

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.
