[PATCH 3/3] kcov: remove useless barrier()s

[Andrey Ryabinin <aryabinin@virtuozzo.com>]

As comment says barriers needed for preempt_schedule_irq() case
where in_interrupt() returns false. But we don't use in_interrupt()
since b274c0bb394c ("kcov: properly check if we are in an interrupt").

Now we use in_task() which handles preempt_schedule_irq() case properly,
thus no barrier required.
