If someone were to write horrible code like:

local_irq_enable();
local_irq_restore(flags);
we'd be up some creek without a paddle... now I don't _think_ we have
genius code like that, but I'd feel saver if we can haz an assertion in
there somewhere...
I was just talking to Peter on IRC about implementing the same thing for
arm64, so could we put this in the generic irqflags code? IIUC we can
use raw_irqs_disabled() to do the check.
As this isn't really entry specific (and IIUC the cases this should
catch would break lockdep today), maybe we should add a new
DEBUG_IRQFLAGS for this, that DEBUG_LOCKDEP can also select?
Something like:
#define local_irq_restore(flags) \
do { \
if (!raw_irqs_disabled_flags(flags)) { \
trace_hardirqs_on(); \
} else if (IS_ENABLED(CONFIG_DEBUG_IRQFLAGS) { \
if (unlikely(raw_irqs_disabled()) \
Whoops; that should be !raw_irqs_disabled().
warn_bogus_irqrestore(); \
} \
raw_local_irq_restore(flags); \
} while (0)
... perhaps? (ignoring however we deal with once-ness).
If no-one shouts in the next day or two I'll spin this as its own patch.
