lib/irq_poll: Declare IRQ_POLL softirq vector as ksoftirqd-parking safe

The following warning may appear while setting a CPU down:

	NOHZ tick-stop error: Non-RCU local softirq work is pending, handler #20!!!

The IRQ_POLL_SOFTIRQ vector can be raised during the hotplug cpu_down()
path after ksoftirqd is parked and before the CPU actually dies. However
this is handled afterward at the CPUHP_IRQ_POLL_DEAD stage where the
queue gets migrated.

Hence this warning can be considered spurious and the vector can join
the "hotplug-safe" list.
