 In include/linux/spinlock.h 
#define spin_lock_irqsave(lock, flags)                          \
do {                                                            \
        raw_spin_lock_irqsave(spinlock_check(lock), flags);     \
} while (0)

The above API invokes raw_spin_lock_irqsave know.
So is there any difference between raw_spin_lock_irqsave and spin_lock_irqsave ?

Thanks & Regards,
