rcu: Eliminate rcu_irq_enter_disabled()
Now that the irq path uses the rcu_nmi_{enter,exit}() algorithm, rcu_irq_enter() and rcu_irq_exit() may be used from any context. There is thus no need for rcu_irq_enter_disabled() and for the checks using it. This commit therefore eliminates rcu_irq_enter_disabled(). Signed-off-by: Paul E. McKenney <paulmck@linux.vnet.ibm.com>
