[PATCH v5 1/3] softirq: Add generic accessor to percpu softirq_pending data

[John Stultz <jstultz@google.com>]

In a previous iteration of this patch series, I was checking:

   per_cpu(irq_stat, cpu).__softirq_pending

which resulted in build errors on s390.

This patch tries to create a generic accessor to this percpu
softirq_pending data.

This interface is inherently racy as its reading percpu data
without a lock. However, being able to peek at the softirq
pending data allows us to make better decisions about rt task
placement vs just ignoring it.

On s390 this call returns 0, which maybe isn't ideal but
results in no functional change from what we do now.

TODO: Heiko suggested changing s390 to use a proper per-cpu
irqstat variable instead.

Feedback or suggestions for better approach here would be
welcome!
