   I'd suggest making it a counting warning (with a static counter per
   local-bh-enable macro expansion) and adding it to local_bh_enable() -
   otherwise it will only BUG()  when the (potentially rare) condition
   happens - instead of always giving a nice backtrace of exact problem 
   spots.

Ok, maybe it's time to move local_bh_enable() out of line, it's
getting large and it's expanded in hundreds of places.
