Or stalling the Xenomai stage in the interrupt pipeline. See
rthal_local_irq_* in asm-generic/hal.h. But at the very least, make sure
that no Linux rescheduling occurs during the critical section; this
includes disabling kernel preemption before stalling the Xenomai domain.

No, this would make no sense. Interrupts are flowing down the Adeos
pipeline by domain priority order.
