[PATCH] time/tick-broadcast: Fix tick_broadcast_offline() lockdep complaint

From: Paul E. McKenney

The TASKS03 and TREE04 rcutorture scenarios produce the following
lockdep complaint:

It turns out that tick_broadcast_offline() can be invoked with interrupts
enabled, so this commit fixes this issue by replacing the raw_spin_lock()
with raw_spin_lock_irqsave().
