I would be _very_ glad to see that irq_work thingy gone. I just stumbled
upon this irq_work and cursed a little while doing other things.
Checking John's series and seeing that it was gone, was a relief.
Printing the whole thing in irq context does not look sane. printing the
import things right away and printing the remaining things later in
kthread looks good to me.
