[PATCH] sched: generalize CONFIG_IRQ_TIME_ACCOUNTING for X86 and ARM

[Dmitry Antipov]

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.
