Subject: [PATCH RT 2/3] irq_work: Fix checking of IRQ_WORK_LAZY flag set on non PREEMPT_RT

4.19.106-rt46-rc1 stable review patch.
If anyone has any objections, please let me know.

------------------

From: "Steven Rostedt (VMware)" <rostedt@...dmis.org>

When CONFIG_PREEMPT_RT_FULL is not set, some of the checks for using
lazy_list are not properly made as the IRQ_WORK_LAZY is not checked. There's
two locations that need this update, so a use_lazy_list() helper function is
added and used in both locations.
