x86/pv: Rework arch_local_irq_restore() to not use popf
POPF is a rather expensive operation, so don't use it for restoring irq flags. Instead, test whether interrupts are enabled in the flags parameter and enable interrupts via STI in that case. This results in the restore_fl paravirt op to be no longer needed.
