Subject: [PATCH] sched: generalize CONFIG_IRQ_TIME_ACCOUNTING for X86 and ARM

Generalize CONFIG_IRQ_TIME_ACCOUNTING between X86 and
ARM, move "noirqtime=" option to common debugging code.
For a bit of backward compatibility, X86-specific option
"tsc=noirqtime" is preserved, but issues a warning.

Please use the customary (multi-line) comment style:

/*

specified in Documentation/CodingStyle.

should be turned into __read_mostly I guess.
