[PATCH] x86: MCE: make cmci_discover_lock irq-safe

[Hidetoshi Seto]

Lockdep reports the warning below when Li tries to offline one cpu:

[  110.835487] =================================
[  110.835616] [ INFO: inconsistent lock state ]
[  110.835688] 2.6.30-rc4-00336-g8c9ed89 #52
[  110.835757] ---------------------------------
[  110.835828] inconsistent {HARDIRQ-ON-W} -> {IN-HARDIRQ-W} usage.
[  110.835908] swapper/0 [HC1[1]:SC0[0]:HE0:SE1] takes:
[  110.835982]  (cmci_discover_lock){?.+...}, at: [<ffffffff80236dc0>] cmci_clear+0x30/0x9b

cmci_clear() can be called via smp_call_function_single().

It is better to disable interrupt while holding cmci_discover_lock,
to turn it into an irq-safe lock - we can deadlock otherwise.

[ Impact: fix possible deadlock in the MCE code ]
