This reverts commit 6ef869e0647439af0fc28dde162d33320d4e1dd7.

Also remove the CONFIG_PREEMPT_DYNAMIC guarded inclusion of
linux/entry-common.h which seems to have been missed somewhere.

-	  This option allows to define the preemption model on the kernel

-	  model defined during compile time.

-	  The feature is primarily interesting for Linux distributions which
-	  provide a pre-built kernel binary to reduce the number of kernel
-	  flavors they offer while still offering different usecases.
-
-	  The runtime overhead is negligible with HAVE_STATIC_CALL_INLINE enabled
-	  but if runtime patching is not available for the specific architecture
-	  then the potential overhead should be considered.
-
-	  Interesting if you want the same pre-built kernel should be used for
-	  both Server and Desktop workloads.
