[S390] nohz/sclp: disable timer on synchronous waits.

sclp_sync_wait wait synchronously for an sclp interrupt and disables
timer interrupts. However on the irq enter paths there is an extra
check if a timer interrupt would be due and calls the timer callback.
This would schedule softirqs in the wrong context.
So introduce local_tick_enable/disable which prevents this.
