yeah, indeed you are right - it checks the soft flag. But even then, the
better fix is to check for hardirqs-off first and not to flip around the
preempt count check in irqs_off_preempt_count() - i.e. something like
the patch below. Does this solve the warning you've triggered with
irqsoff-tracing enabled?
