Ben reports that when running with CONFIG_DEBUG_PREEMPT, using
__arch_counter_get_cntvct_stable() results in well deserves warnings,
as we access a per-CPU variable without preemption disabled.
Fix the issue by disabling preemption on reading the counter. We can
probably do a lot better by not disabling preemption on systems that
do not require horrible workarounds to return a valid counter value,
but this plugs the issue for the time being.
