xen/events: avoid using info_for_irq() in xen_send_IPI_one()
xen_send_IPI_one() is being used by cpuhp_report_idle_dead() after
it calls rcu_report_dead(), meaning that any RCU usage by
xen_send_IPI_one() is a bad idea.
Unfortunately xen_send_IPI_one() is using notify_remote_via_irq()
today, which is using irq_get_chip_data() via info_for_irq(). And
irq_get_chip_data() in turn is using a maple-tree lookup requiring
RCU.
Avoid this problem by caching the ipi event channels in another
percpu variable, allowing the use notify_remote_via_evtchn() in
xen_send_IPI_one().
