Hi Russell,

I'm observing a data abort loop when I replace this call:

In the local_irq_disable, it ends up calling trace_hardirqs_off
(CONFIG_TRACE_IRQFLAGS_SUPPORT is enabled), which calls
trace_hardirqs_off_caller which checks lockdep_recursion in the
current task, but we've switched to a temporary stack with the
call_with_stack, and get_current is returning NULL.  This
triggers a data abort, which calls trace_hardirqs_off
again and so on.

Do you have any suggestions here?

Thanks,

Sebastian
