Generalize CONFIG_IRQ_TIME_ACCOUNTING  between X86 and
ARM, move "noirqtime=" option to common debugging code.
For a bit of backward compatibility, X86-specific option
"tsc=noirqtime" is preserved, but issues a warning.

Thanks for Cc'ing me (maintainer) and Venki (original author of the
stuff) :-)

Please keep them out-of-line, its not a fast path and it avoids having
to expose the state variable.

You forgot to explain what you need the tri-state for.

Other than that no real objections.. I guess.
