Provide local_irq_{save,restore}_nmi() which will allow us to help
architectures that implement NMIs using IRQ priorities like SPARC64
does.

Sparc uses IRQ prio 15 for NMIs and implements local_irq_disable() as
disable <= 14. However if you do that while inside an NMI you re-
enable the NMI priority again, causing all kinds of fun.

A more solid implementation would first check the disable level and
never lower it, however that is more costly and would slow down the
rest of the kernel for no particular reason.

Therefore introduce local_irq_save_nmi() which can implement this
slower but more solid scheme and dis-allow local_irq_save() from NMI
context.
