Thomas; lockdep cannot currently catch this. It doesn't do IRQ state
validation other than ensuring the state matches with the hardware.

So things like:

	local_irq_disable();
	local_irq_disable();
	local_irq_save();
	local_irq_enable();

(and 'obviously' suspect sequence of IRQ events)

Are _fine_ by it. The only time it will yell is if flipping IRQ state
ends up marking an actual held lock with ENABLED_HARDIRQ while it
already had USED_IN_HARDIRQ.
