cpuidle: always return with interrupts enabled
In the case where cpuidle_idle_call() returns before changing state due to
a need_resched(), it was returning with IRQs disabled.
The idle path assumes that the platform specific idle code returns with
interrupts enabled (although this too is undocumented AFAICT) and on ARM
we have a WARN_ON(!(irqs_disabled()) when returning from the idle loop, so
the user-visible effects were only a warning since interrupts were
eventually re-enabled later.
On x86, this same problem exists, but there is no WARN_ON() to detect it.
As on ARM, the interrupts are eventually re-enabled, so I'm not sure of
any actual bugs triggered by this. It's primarily a
correctness/consistency fix.
This patch ensures IRQs are (re)enabled before returning.

checkpatch: fix __attribute__ matching
In the following code,
union thread_union init_thread_union
__attribute__((__section__(".data.init_task"))) =
{ INIT_THREAD_INFO(init_task) };
There is a non-conforming declaration. It should really be like the
following,
union thread_union init_thread_union
__attribute__((__section__(".data.init_task"))) = {
INIT_THREAD_INFO(init_task)
};
However, checkpatch doesn't catch this right now because it doesn't
correctly evaluate the "__attribute__".
It is not at all clear that we care what preceeds an assignment style
attribute when we find the open brace. Relax the test so we do not need
to check the __attribute__.

checkpatch: correctly stop scanning at the bottom of a hunk
We are allowing context scanning checks to apply against the first line of
context outside at the end of the hunk. This can lead to false matches to
patch names leading to various perl warnings. Correctly stop at the
bottom of the hunk.
