Cleanup in_exception_text() using memory_contains() and
move it in asm/sections.h from asm/trap.h because
section symbols and memory_contains() are defined in
asm/sections.h.

Patch looks buggy - where is __irqentry_text_start and __irqentry_text_end
declared?
Those are declared in asm-generic/sections.h by below patch (on -tip tree)

So, I thougt it was a good time to clean up related code.

Thank you,
