Subject: [PATCH] lockdep: Do not record irq state in
 debug_check_no_locks_freed()

From: Steven Rostedt (VMware) <rostedt@...dmis.org>

While debugging where things were going wrong with mapping
enabling/disabling interrupts with the lockdep state and actual real
enabling and disabling interrupts, I had to silent the irq
disabling/enabling in debug_check_no_locks_freed() because it was
always showing up as it was called before the splat was.

Use raw_local_irq_save/restore() for debug_check_no_locks_freed() as it
hides useful information about where interrupts were used incorrectly
last.
