congruent case which comes to mind is lazy FPU handling.

That one has preempt_ops in hardware: cr0.ts and #NM.

However, that doesn't handle in-kernel use of the fpu. kernel_fpu_begin()/kernel_fpu_end() could easily be modified to take advantage of a generic preempt hook. I'll add a patch for that, and we gain preemptible raid-5 parity calculation.
