[MIPS] SMTC: Fix recursion in instant IPI replay code.
local_irq_restore -> raw_local_irq_restore -> irq_restore_epilog -> smtc_ipi_replay -> smtc_ipi_dq -> spin_unlock_irqrestore -> _spin_unlock_irqrestore -> local_irq_restore The recursion does abort when there is no more IPI queued for a CPU, so this isn't usually fatal which is why we got away with this for so long until this was discovered by code inspection.
