The following lockdep splat was hit:

:

This splat is caused by the fact that lockdep_unregister_key() uses
raw_local_irq_save() which doesn't update the hardirqs_enabled
percpu flag. The call_rcu() function, however, will call
lockdep_assert_irqs_disabled() to check the hardirqs_enabled flag which
remained set in this case.

Fix this problem by using local_irq_save()/local_irq_restore() pairs
whenever call_rcu() is being called.

I think raw_local_irq_save() function can be used if no external
function is being called except maybe printk() as it means another
lockdep problem exists.
