Summary:
- ARCH_GLOBAL_IRQDISABLE was initially introduced for LC823450 SMP
- At that time, i.MX6 (quad Cortex-A9) did not use this config
- However, this option is now used for all CPUs which support SMP
- So it's good timing for refactoring the code
Impact:
- Should have no impact because the logic is the same for SMP
Testing:
- Tested with board: spresense:smp, spresense:wifi_smp
- Tested with qemu: esp32-core:smp, maix-bit:smp, sabre-6quad:smp
- Build only: lc823450-xgevk:rndis, sam4cmp-db:nsh

fs/procfs/fs_procfsproc: Extended the process ID ProcFS output to show per-thread maximum time for pre-emption disabled and maximum time within a critical section.
sched/sched/sched_critmonitor.c: Adds data collection logic in support of monitoring critical sections and pre-emption state.
SMP: Introduce spin_lock_irqsave() and spin_unlock_irqrestore()
These APIs are simplified version of enter_critical_section() and
leave_critical_section() to protect data (e.g. registers) in SMP mode.
By using these APIs inside drivers, performace will be improved.
