tick/nohz: Add BLOCK_SOFTIRQ to the hotplug safe mask
During CPU-hotplug stress testing combined with an I/O workload, the following message is observed: "NOHZ tick-stop error: local softirq work is pending, handler #10!!!" On CPU offline, ksoftirqd is parked at CPUHP_AP_SMPBOOT_THREADS while the CPU still takes interrupts. A block completion raised after that point stays pending, and if the dying CPU goes idle before teardown, report_idle_softirq() sees it, keeps the tick alive and prints the error above. Such pending block completions on the outgoing CPU are drained later by blk_softirq_cpu_dead() (CPUHP_BLOCK_SOFTIRQ_DEAD), so a pending BLOCK_SOFTIRQ is harmless here. Add it to SOFTIRQ_HOTPLUG_SAFE_MASK like the other teardown-covered vectors.
