1. in el0_svc->el0_svc_common, without commit efd112
		local_daif_mask();   //disable the irq and trace irq off
		flags = current_thread_info()->flags;
		if (!has_syscall_work(flags))
			------------    //1
			return;
If el0_svc_common enters the logic at line 1, the irq is disabled and
current->hardirqs_enabled is 0.

2. then it goes to el0_da
in el0_da, it enables the irq without changing current->hardirqs_enabled to 1

3. goes to el0_da->do_mem_abort->... the lockdep warning happens

The commit efd112 fixes it by invoking trace_hardirqs_off at line 1.
It closes the inconsistency window.

Jia
