Unclear. acpi_enter_idle_bm() assumes that it is entered with irqs enabled, and so it we unconditionally disables IRQs. Then we unconditionally re-enable them. The problem seems to be that right after we enable them, we find that they are actually disabled, perhaps as a side-effect of SMM. Is your machine a Dell, per chance?
