[PATCH 3/6] sched/preempt: simplify irqentry_exit_cond_resched() callers

Currently callers of irqentry_exit_cond_resched() need to be aware of
whether the function should be indirected via a static call, leading to
ugly ifdeffery in callers.

Save them the hassle with a static inline wrapper that does the right
thing. The raw_irqentry_exit_cond_resched() will also be useful in
subsequent patches which will add conditional wrappers for preemption
functions.

Note: in arch/x86/entry/common.c, xen_pv_evtchn_do_upcall() always calls
irqentry_exit_cond_resched() directly, even when PREEMPT_DYNAMIC is in
use. I believe this is a latent bug (which this patch corrects), but I'm
not entirely certain this wasn't deliberate.
