irq: Ensure irq_exit() code runs with interrupts disabled
We had already a few problems with code called from irq_exit() when interrupted from a nesting interrupt. This can happen on architectures which do not define __ARCH_IRQ_EXIT_IRQS_DISABLED. __ARCH_IRQ_EXIT_IRQS_DISABLED should go away and we want to make it mandatory to call irq_exit() with interrupts disabled. As a temporary protection disable interrupts for those architectures which do not define __ARCH_IRQ_EXIT_IRQS_DISABLED and add a WARN_ONCE when an architecture which defines __ARCH_IRQ_EXIT_IRQS_DISABLED calls irq_exit() with interrupts enabled.
