arm64: mark idle code as noinstr
Core code disables RCU when calling arch_cpu_idle(), so it's not safe for arch_cpu_idle() or its calees to be instrumented, as the instrumentation callbacks may attempt to use RCU or other features which are unsafe to use in this context. Mark them noinstr to prevent issues. The use of local_irq_enable() in arch_cpu_idle() is similarly problematic, and the "sched/idle: Fix arch_cpu_idle() vs tracing" patch queued in the tip tree addresses that case.
