Hi Mukesh. Thanks for working on this. Trying to go through it.

IMHO this should be enabled after irqentry_* is supported too.

This loop i dont understand why.

exit_to_user_mode also calls user_enter_irqoff.
so below user_enter_irqoff may be a nop or wrong.
also, syscall_exit_to_user_mode disables local interrupts first.
is local_irq_enable fixing something here?
