Blackfin: allow high priority domains to preempt schedule_tail()

ret_from_fork is always entered with hw interrupts off, which prevents
real-time domains to preempt the Linux kernel during part of the
initial context switch to the new task, which could in turn raise the
worst-case latency figures.

To avoid this, stall the root domain stage in the interrupt pipeline
to keep the scheduling tail code free from Linux-handled IRQs, then
enable hardware interrupts again.
