kcsan: avoid unintended access checking in NMIs

Browse source

If a watcher deliberately disables interrupts (either by user choice, or
because we're dealing with a scoped reordered access) to avoid detecting
any data races in interrupts, NMIs are still able to fire.

When we set up a watchpoint on a scoped reordered access, we disabled
interrupts because the same CPU cannot observe reordering of its own
accesses. To ensure we observe no false positives from NMIs, disable
access checking for interrupt contexts as well.
