On PREEMPT_RT the seqcount_t for synchronisation is required on 32bit architectures even on UP because the softirq (and the threaded IRQ handler) can be preempted. With the seqcount_t for synchronisation, a reader with higher priority can preempt the writer and then spin endlessly in read_seqcount_begin() while the writer can't make progress. To avoid such a lock up on PREEMPT_RT the writer must disable preemption during the update. There is no need to disable interrupts because no writer is using this API in hard-IRQ context on PREEMPT_RT. Disable preemption on 32bit-RT within the u64_stats write section.
