Re: [PATCH v2 RT 3.18] irq_work: Provide a soft-irq based queue

Instead of turning all irq_work requests into lazy ones on -rt, just
move their execution from hard into soft-irq context.

This resolves deadlocks of ftrace which will queue work from arbitrary
contexts, including those that have locks held that are needed for
raising a soft-irq.
