Hi Rick,
You need to use spin_lock_irqsave() from process context.
From the interrupt handler itself it doesn't hurt, but it
shouldn't matter much since interrupt handlers should not
get preempted.
but interrupt handlers run in interrupt context when interrupts are already disabled. Is that correct ?

What is important? What you want to be true, or what is true?
