Subject: sched/preempt: Rename PREEMPT_CHECK_OFFSET to PREEMPT_DISABLE_OFFSET

From: Frederic Weisbecker <[email protected]>

commit 90b62b5129d5cb50f62f40e684de7a1961e57197 upstream.

"CHECK" suggests it's only used as a comparison mask. But now it's used further as a config-conditional preempt disabler offset. Lets disambiguate this name.
