hugetlb: make free_huge_page irq safe

Commit c77c0a8a ("mm/hugetlb: defer freeing of huge pages if in
non-task context") was added to address the issue of free_huge_page being
called from irq context.  That commit hands off free_huge_page processing
to a workqueue if !in_task.  However, this doesn't cover all the cases as
pointed out by 0day bot lockdep report [1].

:  Possible interrupt unsafe locking scenario:
:
:        CPU0                    CPU1
:        ----                    ----
:   lock(hugetlb_lock);
:                                local_irq_disable();
:                                lock(slock-AF_INET);
:                                lock(hugetlb_lock);
:   <Interrupt>
:     lock(slock-AF_INET);

Shakeel has later explained that this is very likely TCP TX zerocopy from
hugetlb pages scenario when the networking code drops a last reference to
hugetlb page while having IRQ disabled.  Hugetlb freeing path doesn't
disable IRQ while holding hugetlb_lock so a lock dependency chain can lead
to a deadlock.

This commit addresses the issue by doing the following:
 - Make hugetlb_lock irq safe. This is mostly a simple process of
   changing spin_*lock calls to spin_*lock_irq* calls.
 - Make subpool lock irq safe in a similar manner.
 - Revert the !in_task check and workqueue handoff.
