i'm hesitant for a number of reasons. Eg. irq_save_off(flags) has to be a
macro, otherwise we move the assignment into the irqs-off section.
Compare:
flags = irq_save_off();
with:
irq_flags_off(flags);
sure, it could be written as:
flags = irq_save();
irq_off();
but then again the macro form is more compact.
