x86: Use preempt_disable_notrace() in cycles_2_ns()

When debug preempt is enabled, preempt_disable() can be traced by
function and function graph tracing.

There's a place in the function graph tracer that calls trace_clock()
which eventually calls cycles_2_ns() outside of the recursion
protection. When cycles_2_ns() calls preempt_disable() it gets traced
and the graph tracer will go into a recursive loop causing a crash or
worse, a triple fault.

Simple fix is to use preempt_disable_notrace() in cycles_2_ns, which
makes sense because the preempt_disable() tracing may use that code
too, and it tracing it, even with recursion protection is rather
pointless.
