alpha: Fix preemption handling in idle loop
cpu_idle() is called on the boot CPU by the init code with preemption disabled. But the cpu_idle() function in alpha doesn't handle this when it calls schedule() directly. Fix it by converting it into schedule_preempt_disabled(). Also disable preemption before calling cpu_idle() from secondary CPU entry code to stay consistent with this state.
