Revert "genirq: assert that irq handlers are indeed running in hardir…

…q context" This reverts commit 044d408. The commit added a warning when handle_IRQ_event() is called outside of hard interrupt context. This breaks the generic tasklet based interrupt resend mechanism which is used when the hardware has no way to retrigger the interrupt. So we get a warning for a use case which is correct and worked for years. Remove it. Signed-off-by: Thomas Gleixner <[email protected]>
