Then we fix them.

I did so today. Just didn't realize things actually relied on it since
lockdep turned them off and my system has been working fine.
Your driver needs threaded interrupts, Thomas is working on that now,
and I saw a conversion of your driver to use that.
IDE PIO can hopefully also be converted to threaded interrupts.
After that I'll post patches to remove IRQF_DISABLED and provide a
another flag to quick-'fix' other iffy drivers.
Once such drivers are found we can work on proper fixes for them.
