[PATCH] intel_idle: Fix false positive RCU splats due to incorrect hardirqs state

[Waiman Long]

Commit 32d4fd5751ea ("cpuidle,intel_idle: Fix CPUIDLE_FLAG_IRQ_ENABLE")
uses raw_local_irq_enable/local_irq_disable() around call to
__intel_idle() in intel_idle_irq().

With interrupt enabled, timer tick interrupt can happen and a
subsequently call to __do_softirq() may change the lockdep hardirqs state
of a debug kernel back to 'on'. This will result in a mismatch between
the cpu hardirqs state (off) and the lockdep hardirqs state (on) causing
a number of false positive "WARNING: suspicious RCU usage" splats.

Fix that by using local_irq_disable() to disable interrupt in
intel_idle_irq().
