Frederic Weisbecker a0a7e453b5 sched/preempt: Tell about PREEMPT_DYNAMIC on kernel headers
Displaying "PREEMPT" on kernel headers when CONFIG_PREEMPT_DYNAMIC=y
can be misleading for anybody involved in remote debugging because it
is then not guaranteed that there is an actual preemption behaviour. It
depends on default Kconfig or boot defined choices.

Therefore, tell about PREEMPT_DYNAMIC on static kernel headers and leave
the search for the actual preemption behaviour to browsing dmesg.

Linux kernel
============

There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can
be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read
Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first.

In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``.  The formatted documentation can also be read online at:

    https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/

There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation.

Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the
requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about
the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
