How can we have a > softirq execute when irqs are disabled? There are not. With local_bh_disable() the softirq will run on local_bh_enable(). Without it (and with or without local_irq_disable()) the softirq won't run but wakeup the ksoftirq thread. We can't do the wake while holding the hrtimer lock.
