percpu: convert spin_lock_irq to spin_lock_irqsave.
From Michael Cree: "Bisection lead to commit b38d08f3 ("percpu: restructure locking") as being the cause of lockups at initial boot on the kernel built for generic Alpha. On a suggestion by Tejun Heo that: So, the only thing I can think of is that it's calling spin_unlock_irq() while irq handling isn't set up yet. Can you please try the followings? 1. Convert all spin_[un]lock_irq() to spin_lock_irqsave/unlock_irqrestore()." Fixes: b38d08f3 ("percpu: restructure locking") Reported-and-tested-by: Michael Cree <mcree@orcon.net.nz> Acked-by: Tejun Heo <tj@kernel.org> Signed-off-by: Dennis Zhou <dennis@kernel.org>
