genirq: Add support for warning on long-running interrupt handlers

Browse source

Introduce a mechanism to detect and warn about prolonged interrupt handlers.
With a new command-line parameter (irqhandler.duration_warn_us=), users can
configure the duration threshold in microseconds when a warning in such
format should be emitted:

"[CPU14] long duration of IRQ[159:bad_irq_handler [long_irq]], took: 1330 us"

The implementation uses local_clock() to measure the execution duration of the
generic IRQ per-CPU event handler.
