ARM: 6540/1: Stop irqsoff trace on return to user

Browse source 
If the irqsoff tracer is in use, stop tracing the interrupt disable
interval when returning to userspace.  Tracing userspace execution time
as interrupts disabled time is not helpful for kernel performance
analysis purposes.  Only do so if the irqsoff tracer is enabled, to
avoid overhead for lockdep, which doesn't care.
