Hi Linus !

It looks like my rewrite of our lazy irq scheme is still exposing
"interesting" issues left and right. The previous fixes are now
causing an occasional BUG_ON to trigger (which this patch turns
into a WARN_ON while at it), due to another issue of disconnect
of the lazy irq state vs. the processor state in the idle loop
on pseries and cell.

This should fix it properly once for all moving the nasty code to a common
helper function.

There's also couple more fixes for some debug stuff that didn't build
(and helped resolving those problems so it's worth having), along with
a compile fix for newer gcc's.

Cheers,
Ben.
