3.18.36-rt38-rc1 stable review patch.
If anyone has any objections, please let me know.

------------------

From: Sebastian Andrzej Siewior <bigeasy@linutronix.de>

If we get out of preempt_schedule_irq() then we check for NEED_RESCHED
and call the former function again if set because the preemption counter
has be zero at this point.
However the counter for lazy-preempt might not be zero therefore we have
to check the counter before looking at the need_resched_lazy flag.
