irq replay is quite complicated because of softirq processing which itself enables and disables irqs. Several considerations need to be accounted for due to this, and they are not clearly documented. Refactor the irq replay code a bit to tidy and deduplicate some common functions. Add comments, debug checks. This has a minor functional change that irq tracing enable/disable is done after each interrupt replayed, rather than after a batch. It also re-sets state to IRQS_ALL_DISABLED after an interrupt, which doesn't matter much because interrupts are hard disabled at this point, but it is more consistent with how interrupt handlers are called.

Linux kernel
============
There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can
be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read
Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first.
In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``. The formatted documentation can also be read online at:
https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/
There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation.
Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the
requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about
the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
