Subject: genirq: Use rcu in kstat_irqs_usr()
Git-commit: 4a5f4d2f891bcff7285b5f7490ed5a7a5d516049
Patch-mainline: v4.19-rc1
References: bsc#1193738

Jeremy Dorfman identified mutex contention when multiple threads
parse /proc/stat concurrently.

Since commit 425a5072dcd1 ("genirq: Free irq_desc with rcu"),
kstat_irqs_usr() can be switched to rcu locking, which removes this mutex
contention.

show_interrupts() case will be handled in a separate patch.
