Subject: BUG_ON(irqs_disabled()) in smp_call_function - cant boot

There was a BUG_ON(irqs_disabled()) recently added to
smp_call_function(). 

This check is hit during boot. Looks like there is a vfree in
sg_add that is done with interrupts disabled. This trips the BUG_ON.

The check is valid, but I wonder how many other places will trip the bug
check.
