commit b080935c8638e08134629d0a9ebdf35669bec14d
    kvm: Directly account vtime to system on guest switch

also removed the irq_disable/enable around kvm guest switch, which
is correct in itself. Unfortunately, there is a BUG ON that (correctly)
checks for preemptible to cover the call to rcu later on.
(Introduced with commit 8fa2206821953a50a3a02ea33fcfb3ced2fd9997
    KVM: make guest mode entry to be rcu quiescent state)

This check might trigger depending on the kernel config.
Lets make sure that no preemption happens during kvm_guest_enter.
We can enable preemption again after the call to
rcu_virt_note_context_switch returns.

Please note that we continue to run s390 guests with interrupts
enabled.
