Mark Rutland 8e12ab7c0e arm64: entry: Centralize preemption decision
For historical reasons, the decision of whether or not to preempt is
spread across arm64_preempt_schedule_irq() and __el1_irq(), and it would
be clearer if this were all in one place.

Also, arm64_preempt_schedule_irq() calls lockdep_assert_irqs_disabled(),
but this is redundant, as we have a subsequent identical assertion in
__exit_to_kernel_mode(), and preempt_schedule_irq() will
BUG_ON(!irqs_disabled()) anyway.

This patch removes the redundant assertion and centralizes the
preemption decision making within arm64_preempt_schedule_irq().

Other than the slight change to assertion behaviour, there should be no
functional change as a result of this patch.

Linux kernel
============

There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can
be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read
Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first.

In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``.  The formatted documentation can also be read online at:

    https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/

There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation.

Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the
requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about
the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
