[PATCH tip/core/rcu 1/2] rcu: cleanup: balance rcu_irq_enter()/rcu_irq_exit() calls

[Paul E. McKenney]

From: Lai Jiangshan <laijs@xxxxxxxxxxxxxx>

Currently, rcu_irq_exit() is invoked only for CONFIG_NO_HZ, while
rcu_irq_enter() is invoked unconditionally.  This patch moves
rcu_irq_exit() out from under CONFIG_NO_HZ so that the calls are
balanced.

This patch has no effect on the behavior of the kernel because
both rcu_irq_enter() and rcu_irq_exit() are empty for !CONFIG_NO_HZ,
but the code is easier to understand if the calls are obviously
balanced in all cases.
