[PATCH 3/4] printk, lockdep: Remove lockdep_off() usage

From: Peter Zijlstra
Date: Tue Jun 21 2011 - 11:40:46 EST


Remove the lockdep_off() usage from printk(). Also add a
debug_locks_off() call to zap_locks() since that'll mess up the lock
state in a royal way anyway, and zap_locks() when lockdep causes a
printk() recursion so that we can at observe the splat.

Further switch to local_irq_ ops so that the irq state is properly
tracked (raw_local_irq_* isn't tracked by lockdep, causing confusion).
Also drop superfluous preempt_disable(), disabling IRQs already avoids
scheduling.
