In kernel/sched.c the return value from preempt_count() is cast to an int.
That made sense when preempt_count was defined as different types on is not
needed and should go away.  The patch removes the cast.

In kernel/timer.c the return value from preempt_count() is assigned to a
variable of type u32 and then that unsigned value is later compared to
preempt_count().  Since preempt_count() returns an int, an int is what
should be used to store its return value.  Storing the result in an
unsigned 32bit integer made a tiny bit of sense back when preempt_count was
different types on different archs, but no more - let's not play signed vs
unsigned comparison games when we don't have to.  The patch modifies the
code to use an int to hold the value.  While I was around that bit of code
I also made two changes to a nearby (related) printk() - I modified it to
specify the loglevel explicitly and also broke the line into a few pieces
to avoid it being longer than 80 chars and clarified the text a bit.
