Subject: genirq: reimplement exit_irq_thread() hook via task_work_add()

exit_irq_thread() and task->irq_thread are needed to handle the unexpected
(and unlikely) exit of irq-thread.

We can use task_work instead and make this all private to
kernel/irq/manage.c, cleanup plus micro-optimization.

1. rename exit_irq_thread() to irq_thread_dtor(), make it
   static, and move it up before irq_thread().

2. change irq_thread() to do task_work_add(irq_thread_dtor)
   at the start and task_work_cancel() before return.

   tracehook_notify_resume() can never play with kthreads,
   only do_exit()->exit_task_work() can call the callback
   and this is what we want.

3. remove task_struct->irq_thread and the special hook
   in do_exit().
