[PARISC] Make sure timer and IPI execute with interrupts disabled

Browse source 
Fix a longstanding smp bug

The problem is that both the timer and ipi interrupts are being called
with interrupts enabled, which isn't what anyone is expecting.

The IPI issue has just started to show up by causing a BUG_ON in the
slab debugging code.  The timer issue never shows up because there's an
eiem work around in our irq.c

The fix is to label both these as SA_INTERRUPT which causes the generic
irq code not to enable interrupts.

I also suspect the smp_call_function timeouts we're seeing might be
connected with the fact that we disable IPIs when handling any other
type of interrupt.  I've put a WARN_ON in the code for executing
smp_call_function() with IPIs disabled.
