rcu: Abstract out rcu_irq_enter_check_tick() from rcu_nmi_enter()

Browse Source 
There will likely be exception handlers that can sleep, which rules
out the usual approach of invoking rcu_nmi_enter() on entry and also
rcu_nmi_exit() on all exit paths.  However, the alternative approach of
just not calling anything can prevent RCU from coaxing quiescent states
from nohz_full CPUs that are looping in the kernel:  RCU must instead
IPI them explicitly.  It would be better to enable the scheduler tick
on such CPUs to interact with RCU in a lighter-weight manner, and this
enabling is one of the things that rcu_nmi_enter() currently does.

What is needed is something that helps RCU coax quiescent states while
not preventing subsequent sleeps.  This commit therefore splits out the
nohz_full scheduler-tick enabling from the rest of the rcu_nmi_enter()
logic into a new function named rcu_irq_enter_check_tick().

[ tglx: Renamed the function and made it a nop when context tracking is off ]
[ mingo: Fixed a CONFIG_NO_HZ_FULL assumption, harmonized and fixed all the
         comment blocks and cleaned up rcu_nmi_enter()/exit() definitions. ]
