ARM: fix rcu stalls on SMP platforms
We can stall RCU processing on SMP platforms if a CPU sits in its idle
loop for a long time. This happens because we don't call irq_enter()
and irq_exit() around generic_smp_call_function_interrupt() and
friends. Add the necessary calls, and remove the one from within
ipi_timer(), so that they're all in a common place.
