irq_work: Allow irq_work_sync() to sleep if irq_work() no IRQ support.
irq_work() triggers instantly an interrupt if supported by the architecture. Otherwise the work will be processed on the next timer tick. In worst case irq_work_sync() could spin up to a jiffy. irq_work_sync() is usually used in tear down context which is fully preemptible. Based on review irq_work_sync() is invoked from preemptible context and there is one waiter at a time. This qualifies it to use rcuwait for synchronisation. Let irq_work_sync() synchronize with rcuwait if the architecture processes irqwork via the timer tick.
