Agreed, and please see below for the proposed cleanup in this case.

commit 43e96791e7d1605803093b34fb70217fe29ddaeb

    rcu: Disable interrupts directly in rcu_gp_init()
    
    Interrupts are enabled in rcu_gp_init(), so this commit switches from
    local_irq_save() and local_irq_restore() to local_irq_disable() and
    local_irq_enable().
