I think it's fine to delete this irq save code. As for the "TODO"

BUG_ON(!irqs_disabled());

WARN_ON_ONCE(!irqs_disabled());
no, please don't do this. Please add instead
lockdep_assert_held()
on the lock in question and let lockdep to its work. Lockdep has way
better coverage than your irqs_disabled() check which also breaks RT.
lockdep_assert_held() cannot detect the irq state, it can only detect
whether we have held the lock.
Because you are trying to delete the irq-save code which will make the
comment hard to understand, I'm just giving an advise. It's welcome
if you have a better way.
Thanks.
and then delete the "TODO" comment.
