Xen devel - Mar 2011 - [PATCH] x86: cleanup after tboot fix (c/s 23101:dd386a4b6595)

When submitting the patch that became 23101:dd386a4b6595 I forgot that
I actually intended to remove the pointless IRQ disabling and restoring
(and the then pointless comment). Pointless because the code, other
than its pre-23013:65d26504e843 original, now runs before interrupts
get enabled for the first time.
