time, acct: Drop irq save & restore from __acct_update_integrals()
It looks like all the call paths that lead to __acct_update_integrals()
already have irqs disabled, and __acct_update_integrals() does not need
to disable irqs itself.
This is very convenient since about half the CPU time left in this
function was spent in local_irq_save alone.
Performance of a microbenchmark that calls an invalid syscall
ten million times in a row on a nohz_full CPU improves 21% vs.
4.5-rc1 with both the removal of divisions from __acct_update_integrals()
and this patch, with runtime dropping from 3.7 to 2.9 seconds.
With these patches applied, the highest remaining cpu user in
the trace is native_sched_clock, which is addressed in the next
patch.
For testing purposes I stuck a WARN_ON(!irqs_disabled()) test
in __acct_update_integrals(). It did not trigger.
