[patch 2/6] Fix IRQ tracing.

From: Martin Schwidefsky
Date: Fri Jul 27 2007 - 07:33:35 EST


From: Heiko Carstens <heiko.carstens@xxxxxxxxxx>

If a machine check is pending and the external or I/O interrupt handler
returns to userspace io_mcck_pending is going to call s390_handle_mcck.
Before this happens a call to TRACE_IRQS_ON was already made since we
know that we are going back to userspace and hence interrupts will be
enabled. So there was an indication that interrupts are enabled while
in reality they are still disabled.
s390_handle_mcck will do a local_irq_save/restore pair and confuse
lockdep which later complains about inconsistent irq tracing.
To solve this just call trace_hardirqs_off before calling
s390_handle_mcck and trace_hardirqs_on afterwards.
