It is to reflect the actual state at copy_process(), although I think
here's a little buglet:

ifdef CONFIG_TRACE_IRQFLAGS
	p->irq_events = 0;
#ifdef __ARCH_WANT_INTERRUPTS_ON_CTXSW
	p->hardirqs_enabled = 1;
#else
	p->hardirqs_enabled = 0;
#endif
	p->hardirq_enable_ip = 0;
	p->hardirq_enable_event = 0;
	p->hardirq_disable_ip = _THIS_IP_;
	p->hardirq_disable_event = 0;
	p->softirqs_enabled = 1;
	p->softirq_enable_ip = _THIS_IP_;
	p->softirq_enable_event = 0;
	p->softirq_disable_ip = 0;
	p->softirq_disable_event = 0;
	p->hardirq_context = 0;
	p->softirq_context = 0;
#endif

I think the hardirq_enable/disable_ip should also depend on
__ARCH_WANT_INTERRUPTS_ON_CTXSW.
