Subject: [PATCH] rcu: Put the irq work into hard interrupt context for execution

In PREEMPT_RT kernel, if irq work flags is not set, it will be
executed in per-CPU irq_work kthreads. set IRQ_WORK_HARD_IRQ flags
to irq work, put it in the context of hard interrupt execution,
accelerate scheduler to re-evaluate.
