Peter Zijlstra 5322ea58a0 perf/ring-buffer: Use regular variables for nesting
While the IRQ/NMI will nest, the nest-count will be invariant over the
actual exception, since it will decrement equal to increment.

This means we can -- carefully -- use a regular variable since the
typical LOAD-STORE race doesn't exist (similar to preempt_count).

This optimizes the ring-buffer for all LOAD-STORE architectures, since
they need to use atomic ops to implement local_t.
