xen_maybe_preempt_hcall() is called from the exception entry point

_cond_resched() evades the might_sleep() check in cond_resched() which
would have caught that and schedule_debug() unfortunately lacks a check
for irqs_disabled().

Enable interrupts around the call and use cond_resched() to catch future
issues.

Could you please put the call of local_irq_disable() directly after the
cond_resched() call to make the result symmetric regarding writing of
xen_in_preemptible_hcall and irq enable/disable?
