wait_on_irq race condition? (and solution??)

I've run into problems with 'wait_on_irq' where global_irq_count was 1,
but neither had anything in local_irq_count.

I think the race condition that Linus found that we ignore might actually
matter..

Anway, I made our irq.c look more like x86's, and it seems to have solved
the problem on my MTX so far.

Should I commit this to 2_4_devel?
