Subject: [PATCH] ARM: fix 'unannotated irqs-on' lockdep warning

From: Ming Lei <tom.leiming@...il.com>

This patch fixes the 'unannotated irqs-on' lockdep warning below:

	CPU: Testing write buffer coherency: ok
	------------[ cut here ]------------
	WARNING: at kernel/lockdep.c:3145 check_flags+0xcc/0x1dc()

	[<c007e184>] (kthreadd+0x30/0x108) from [<c0030104>] (kernel_thread_exit+0x0/0x8)
	---[ end trace 1b75b31a2719ed1c ]---
	possible reason: unannotated irqs-on.
	irq event stamp: 3
	hardirqs last  enabled at (2): [<c0059bb0>] finish_task_switch+0x48/0xb0
	hardirqs last disabled at (3): [<c002f0b0>] ret_slow_syscall+0xc/0x1c
	softirqs last  enabled at (0): [<c005f3e0>] copy_process+0x394/0xe5c
	softirqs last disabled at (0): [<(null)>] (null)

This patch introduces macro of trace_ret_hardirqs_on, which will
call trace_hardirqs_on if I flag in the stored CPSR is zero.

In the path of returning to user-space, the patch replaces disable_irq
with disable_irq_notrace in ret_to_user to avoid the 'unannotated irqs-on'
lockdep warning since hardirqs is always enabled before returning to user.

In the path of returning to kernel-space, the patch still replaces
disable_irq with disable_irq_notrace in __xxx_svc handler and adds
trace_hardirqs_on before calling svc_exit to trace the possible hardirqs on
event for avoiding the possible 'unannotated irqs-on' lockdep warning.
