arm64: Fix interrupt tracing in the presence of NMIs
In the presence of any form of instrumentation, nmi_enter() should be done before calling any traceable code and any instrumentation code. Currently, nmi_enter() is done in handle_domain_nmi(), which is much too late as instrumentation code might get called before. Move the nmi_enter/exit() calls to the arch IRQ vector handler. On arm64, it is not possible to know if the IRQ vector handler was called because of an NMI before acknowledging the interrupt. However, It is possible to know whether normal interrupts could be taken in the interrupted context (i.e. if taking an NMI in that context could introduce a potential race condition). When interrupting a context with IRQs disabled, call nmi_enter() as soon as possible. In contexts with IRQs enabled, defer this to the interrupt controller, which is in a better position to know if an interrupt taken is an NMI.
