Someone can call open() while at the same time the kernel sends a
media event from interrupt context. Such an event function will walk
over the fh_list. The irqsave here is meant to ensure that no event
interrupt can run while we add our fh to the fh list.

But without interrupts that access fh_list the irqsave variant is
confusing.
