rcu: Assume IRQS disabled from rcu_report_dead()
rcu_report_dead() is the last RCU word from the CPU down through the hotplug path. It is called in the idle loop right before the CPU shuts down for good. Because it removes the CPU from the grace period state machine and reports an ultimate quiescent state if necessary, no further use of RCU is allowed. Therefore it is expected that IRQs are disabled upon calling this function and are not to be re-enabled again until the CPU shuts down. Remove the IRQs disablement from that function and verify instead that it is actually called with IRQs disabled as it is expected at that special point in the idle path.
