[PATCH] powerpc/entry: Fix double accounting of user time on interrupt entry

Since the switch to generic entry, an interrupt taken from user mode
accounts user time twice: once in arch_interrupt_enter_prepare() and
again in arch_enter_from_user_mode(), which irqentry_enter() invokes
for the same interrupt:

  arch_interrupt_enter_prepare()
      account_cpu_user_entry()
  irqentry_enter()
    arch_enter_from_user_mode()
      account_cpu_user_entry()

account_cpu_user_entry() accumulates the time spent in user mode
since the last return to user space, so the second call charges the
same interval again.

With CONFIG_VIRT_CPU_ACCOUNTING_NATIVE=y this roughly doubles the
reported user time of any workload that takes interrupts. On a
pseries LPAR, ps/top show ~200% CPU for a single-threaded CPU-bound
loop, and time(1) reports user time about twice the elapsed time.

Remove the accounting from arch_interrupt_enter_prepare() and rely on
arch_enter_from_user_mode(), which runs for both syscalls and
interrupts. The duplicate account_stolen_time() call is removed the
same way.

Verified on a pseries LPAR (CONFIG_VIRT_CPU_ACCOUNTING_NATIVE=y),
7.3.0-rc1, single-threaded CPU-bound loop:

Before:

  $ python3 -c 'while True: pass' &
  $ sleep 3; ps -p $! -o pid,etime,time,pcpu
      PID     ELAPSED     TIME %CPU
     4980       00:03 00:00:06  210

After:

  $ python3 -c 'while True: pass' &
  $ sleep 3; ps -p $! -o pid,etime,time,pcpu
      PID     ELAPSED     TIME %CPU
     4951       00:03 00:00:03  105
