genirq: Remove paranoid warnons and bogus fixups

Alexander pointed out that the warnons in the regular exit path are
bogus and the thread_mask one actually could be triggered when
__setup_irq() hands out that thread_mask again after __free_irq()
dropped irq_desc->lock.

Thinking more about it, neither IRQTF_RUNTHREAD nor the bit in
thread_mask can be set as this is the regular exit path. We come here
due to:
	__free_irq()
	   remove action from desc
	   synchronize_irq()
	   kthread_stop()

So synchronize_irq() makes sure that the thread finished running and
cleaned up both the thread_active count and thread_mask. After that
point nothing can set IRQTF_RUNTHREAD on this action. So the warnons
and the cleanups are pointless.
