Thanks for the report!

Sylvain reported a CPU stall problem which is probably caused by this
commit too.

This commit is to fix another issue, that is, we call be_process_mcc()
which calls spin_lock_bh() with IRQ disabled, this leads to a warning
in:

static inline void _local_bh_enable_ip(unsigned long ip)
{
        WARN_ON_ONCE(in_irq() || irqs_disabled());
	...
}

I think I should just fix be_process_mcc(), instead of re-enabling IRO
for all ->poll callbacks.

I will send a patch to David soon.
