x86/entry/traps: Don't force in_interrupt() to return true in IST handlers

Forcing in_interrupt() to return true if we're not in a bona fide
interrupt confuses the softirq code.  This fixes warnings like:

  NOHZ: local_softirq_pending 282

... which can happen when running things like selftests/x86.

This will change perf's static percpu buffer usage in IST context.
I think this is okay, and it's changing the behavior to match
historical (pre-4.0) behavior.
