commit aaee8c3c5cce2d9107310dd9f3026b4f901d441c upstream.
Forcing in_interrupt() to return true if we're not in a bona fide
interrupt confuses the softirq code. This fixes warnings like:
NOHZ: local_softirq_pending 282
... which can happen when running things like selftests/x86.
This will change perf's static percpu buffer usage in IST context.
I think this is okay, and it's changing the behavior to match
historical (pre-4.0) behavior.
