    xen/softirq: Rework arch_skip_send_event_check() into arch_set_softirq()
    
    x86 is the only architecture wanting an optimisation here, but the
    test_and_set_bit() is a store into the monitored line (i.e. will wake up the
    target) and, prior to the removal of the broken IPI-elision algorithm, was
    racy, causing unnecessary IPIs to be sent.
    
    To do this in a race-free way, the store to the monited line needs to also
    sample the status of the target in one atomic action.  Implement a new arch
    helper with different semantics; to make the softirq pending and decide 
about
    IPIs together.  For now, implement the default helper.  It will be 
overridden
    by x86 in a subsequent change.
    
    No functional change.
