> __ARCH_IRQ_EXIT_IRQS_DISABLED should go away and we want to make it

> As a temporary protection disable interrupts for those architectures
> which do not define __ARCH_IRQ_EXIT_IRQS_DISABLED and add a WARN_ONCE
> when an architecture which defines __ARCH_IRQ_EXIT_IRQS_DISABLED calls
> irq_exit() with interrupts enabled.
