Subject: locking: add typecheck on irqsave and friends for correct flags
From: Steven Rostedt <rostedt@xxxxxxxxxxx>
There haave been several areas in the kernel where an int has been used for
flags in local_irq_save() and friends instead of a long. This can cause some
hard to debug problems on some architectures.
This patch adds a typecheck inside the irqsave and restore functions to flag
these cases.
