The ending "_SOFTIRQ" is just redundant.

And it's you that removed "_SOFTIRQ" in the output of irq
trace events. ;)

softirq: no need to have SOFTIRQ in softirq name

Impact: clean up

It is redundant to have 'SOFTIRQ' in the softirq names.
==========

How about:

#define softirq_name(sirq) { sirq ## _SOFTIRQ, #sirq }
#define show_softirq_name(val) \
__print_symbolic(val, \
softirq_name(HI), \

or:

#define softirq_name(sirq) { sirq, softirq_to_name[sirq] }
