genirq: Change force_irqthreads to a static key

With CONFIG_IRQ_FORCED_THREADING=y, testing the boolean force_irqthreads
could incur a cache line miss in invoke_softirq() and other places.

Replace the test with a static key to avoid the potential cache miss.

[ tglx: Dropped the IDE part, removed the export and updated blk-mq ]
