mm/swap_slots.c: don't disable preemption while taking the per-CPU cache

get_cpu_var() disables preemption and returns the per-CPU version of the
variable.  Disabling preemption is useful to ensure atomic access to the
variable within the critical section.

In this case however, after the per-CPU version of the variable is
obtained the ->free_lock is acquired.  For that reason it seems the raw
accessor could be used.  It only seems that ->slots_ret should be
retested (because with disabled preemption this variable can not be set
to NULL otherwise).

This popped up during PREEMPT-RT testing because it tries to take
spinlocks in a preempt disabled section.  In RT, spinlocks can sleep.
