Since commit 7dadeaa6e851 ("sched: Further restrict the preemption
modes"), powerpc always has CONFIG_PREEMPTION because only
CONFIG_PREEMPT and CONFIG_PREEMPT_LAZY are possible, even in
dynamic preemption mode (see sched_dynamic_mode).

As a consequence, need_irq_preemption() is always true and can be
removed.
