Subject: sched/rt: Hide the push_irq_work_func() declaration

commit 89b411081d70fe3772efa4665279293269c1150d upstream.

The push_irq_work_func() function is conditionally defined only
when both CONFIG_SMP and HAVE_RT_PUSH_IPI are defined, but the
forward declaration remains visibile without HAVE_RT_PUSH_IPI,
causing a gcc warning in ARM64 allnoconfig:

  kernel/sched/rt.c:68:13: warning: 'push_irq_work_func' declared 'static' but never defined [-Wunused-function]

This changes the code to use the same condition for both the
declaration and the function definition, which gets rid of the
warning.

As Peter Zijlstra, we can possibly get rid of the whole HAVE_RT_PUSH_IPI
thing after:

  8053871d0f7f ("smp: Fix smp_call_function_single_async() locking")

Until that is done, this patch can be used to avoid the warning.
