In preparation for removing HANDLE_DOMAIN_IRQ_IRQENTRY, have arch/arm64
perform all the irqentry accounting in its entry code.

As arch/arm64 already performs portions of the irqentry logic in
enter_from_kernel_mode() and exit_to_kernel_mode(), including
rcu_irq_{enter,exit}(), the only additional calls that need to be made
are to irq_{enter,exit}_rcu(). Removing the calls to
rcu_irq_{enter,exit}() from handle_domain_irq() ensures that we inform
RCU once per IRQ entry and will correctly identify quiescent periods.

Since we should not call irq_{enter,exit}_rcu() when entering a
pseudo-NMI, el1_interrupt() is reworked to have separate __el1_irq() and
__el1_pnmi() paths for regular IRQ and psuedo-NMI entry, with
irq_{enter,exit}_irq() only called for the former.

In preparation for removing HANDLE_DOMAIN_IRQ, the irq regs are managed
in do_interrupt_handler() for both regular IRQ and pseudo-NMI. This is
currently redundant, but not harmful.

For clarity the preemption logic is moved into __el1_irq(). We should
never preempt within a pseudo-NMI, and arm64_enter_nmi() already
enforces this by incrementing the preempt_count, but it's clearer if we
never invoke the preemption logic when entering a pseudo-NMI.
