Don't we need to unlock the rq regardless of what fork does?
Also, the alternative would be to set preempt_count to 0 if CONFIG_PREEMPT and 1 if CONFIG_PREEMPT && CONFIG_SMP. I figured Linus would balk at that sort #if/#else in do_fork. And, even then, is it safe to start the task with a preempt_count of 0?
