However I'm not quite sure yet how to teach lockdep about this. The
proposed patch will shut it up though.

As a rule I think we should never make semantic changes to shut up
lockdep.

Especially ones which are costly, as this proposed change is in
that it disables software interrupts in a place where that
is completely unnecessary.

Let's not even consider this patch :)
