trace: Allow idle-safe tracepoints to be called from irq
__DECLARE_TRACE_RCU() currently creates an _rcuidle() tracepoint which
may safely be invoked from what RCU considers to be an idle CPU.
However, these _rcuidle() tracepoints may -not- be invoked from the
handler of an irq taken from idle, because rcu_idle_enter() zeroes
RCU's nesting-level counter, so that the rcu_irq_exit() returning to
idle will trigger a WARN_ON_ONCE().
This commit therefore substitutes rcu_irq_enter() for rcu_idle_exit()
and rcu_irq_exit() for rcu_idle_enter() in order to make the _rcuidle()
tracepoints usable from irq handlers as well as from process context.
