You're right. The background story is that in the beginning, the hazard
pointer protection was placed at the callsites of is_dynamic_key(): one
in register_lock_class() and one in lockdep_init_map_type(), and in
register_lock_class() I could use the fact that it's called with irq
disabled to save the preempt-disable.
So given the current users, it makes sense to fold the preempt disabling
into shazptr guard.
