Subject: [PATCH v2] irq_work: Make irq_work_queue_on() NMI-safe again

We should not put NMI unsafe code in irq_work_queue_on().

The KASAN of kasan_record_aux_stack_noalloc() is not NMI safe. Because which
will call the spinlock. While the irq_work_queue_on() is also very carefully
crafted to be exactly that.
When unable CONFIG_SMP or local CPU, the irq_work_queue_on() is even same to
irq_work_queue(). So delete KASAN instantly.

Fixes: e2b5bcf9f5ba ("irq_work: record irq_work_queue() call stack")
