Subject: [PATCH] rcu: Use IRQ_WORK_INIT_HARD() to initialize defer_qs_iw on PREEMPT_RT kernel

On non-PREEMPT_RT kernel, the init_irq_work() make the defer_qs_iw irq-work
execute in interrupt context. however, on PREEMPT_RT kernel, the
init_irq_work() make defer_qs_iq irq-work execute in rt-fifo irq_work
kthreads. when system booting, and the CONFIG_RCU_STRICT_GRACE_PERIOD
is enabled, there are a lot of defer_qs_iw irq-work to be processed
in rt-fifo irq_work kthreads, it occupies boot CPU for long time and
cause other kthread cannot get the boot CPU, the boot process occurs
hang. use IRQ_WORK_INIT_HARD() to initialize defer_qs_iw irq-work, can
ensure the defer_qs_iw irq-work always execute in interrupt context,
whether PREEMPT_RT or non PREEMPT_RT kernel.
