genirq: reimplement exit_irq_thread() hook via task_work_add()
exit_irq_thread() and task->irq_thread are needed to handle the unexpected
(and unlikely) exit of irq-thread.
We can use task_work instead and make this all private to
kernel/irq/manage.c, cleanup plus micro-optimization.
1. rename exit_irq_thread() to irq_thread_dtor(), make it
static, and move it up before irq_thread().
2. change irq_thread() to do task_work_add(irq_thread_dtor)
at the start and task_work_cancel() before return.
tracehook_notify_resume() can never play with kthreads,
only do_exit()->exit_task_work() can call the callback
and this is what we want.
3. remove task_struct->irq_thread and the special hook
in do_exit().
