Benjamin Walsh 168695c7ef kernel/arch: inspect prio/sched_locked together for preemptibility
These two fields in the thread structure control the preemptibility of a
thread.

sched_locked is decremented when the scheduler gets locked, which means
that the scheduler is locked for values 0xff to 0x01, since it can be
locked recursively. A thread is coop if its priority is negative, thus
if the prio field value is 0x80 to 0xff when looked at as an unsigned
value.

By putting them end-to-end, this means that a thread is non-preemptible
if the bundled value is greater than or equal to 0x0080. This is the
only thing the interrupt exit code has to check to decide to try a
reschedule or not.
