You are quite correct. (Beat head against wall.) :-/

#!/bin/bash
for ((i=0;i<100;i++))
do
echo "De Morgan when converting rcu_lockdep_assert() to WARN_ON_ONCE()"
done

This does sort of defeat the purpose of writing something 100 times, but
I am after all a software developer!!!
Thank you very much for catching this, and please see below for a
replacement patch.
Thanx, Paul
commit 2c9ace45088a25b474167d04b416d279f4ea3401

rcu: add rcu_read_lock_bh_irqsoff() and rcu_read_unlock_bh_irqsoff()
The rcu_read_lock_bh() and rcu_read_unlock_bh() functions can no
longer be used when interrupts are disabled due to new debug checks in
the _local_bh_enable() function. This commit therefore supplies new
functions that may only be called with either interrupts disabled or
from interrupt handlers, and this is checked for under CONFIG_PROVE_RCU.
