An interrupt handler shall not be called from another interrupt
handler otherwise this leads to problems like the following:

	Kernel attempted to write user page (afd4fa84) - exploit attempt? (uid: 1000)

Here the problem is that by re-enterring an exception handler,
kuap_save_and_lock() is called a second time with this time KUAP
access locked, leading to regs->kuap being overwritten hence
KUAP not being unlocked at exception exit as expected.

Do not call do_IRQ() from timer_interrupt() directly. Instead,
redefine do_IRQ() as a standard function named __do_IRQ(), and
call it from both do_IRQ() and time_interrupt() handlers.
