Subject: [PATCH] softirq: weaken warning in local_bh_enable_ip()

This reliably triggers with the following backtrace:

local_bh_enable_ip+0x128/0x140
_raw_spin_unlock_bh+0x15/0x20
iscsit_inc_conn_usage_count+0x37/0x50 [iscsi_target_mod]
iscsit_stop_session+0x1db/0x280 [iscsi_target_mod]
lio_tpg_shutdown_session+0xb2/0xf0 [iscsi_target_mod]
core_tpg_set_initiator_node_queue_depth+0x119/0x2f0 [target_core_mod]
iscsit_tpg_set_initiator_node_queue_depth+0x12/0x20 [iscsi_target_mod]
lio_target_nacl_store_cmdsn_depth+0x110/0x1e0 [iscsi_target_mod]
target_fabric_nacl_base_attr_store+0x39/0x40 [target_core_mod]
configfs_write_file+0xbd/0x120
vfs_write+0xc6/0x180
sys_write+0x51/0x90
system_call_fastpath+0x16/0x1b

core_tpg_set_initiator_node_queue_depth() calls
lio_tpg_shutdown_session() inside a spin_lock_irqsave-protected block.
Calling spin_unlock_bh later in the call chain always triggers the
warning.
