[PATCH RT] [scsi-qla2xxx] Fix BUG: sleeping function called from invalid context

[John Kacur]

The relevant part of the traceback follows
[   11.307652]  [<ffffffff81077b27>] __might_sleep+0xe7/0x110
[   11.307663]  [<ffffffff8150e524>] rt_spin_lock+0x24/0x60
[   11.307670]  [<ffffffff8150da78>] ? rt_spin_lock_slowunlock+0x78/0x90
[   11.307703]  [<ffffffffa0272d83>] qla24xx_intr_handler+0x63/0x2d0 [qla2xxx]
[   11.307736]  [<ffffffffa0262307>] qla2x00_poll+0x67/0x90 [qla2xxx]

Function qla2x00_poll does local_irq_save() before calling qla24xx_intr_handler
which has a spinlock. Since spinlocks are sleepable on rt, it is not allowed
to call them with interrupts disabled. Therefore we use local_irq_save_nort()
instead which saves flags without disabling interrupts.

This fix needs to be applied to v3.0-rt, v3.2-rt and v3.4-rt
