During aio stress test, we observed the following lockdep warning.
This mean AIO+numa_balancing is currently deadlockable.

The problem is, aio_migratepage disable interrupt, but __set_page_dirty_nobuffers
unintentionally enable it again.

Generally, all helper function should use spin_lock_irqsave()
instead of spin_lock_irq() because they don't know caller at all.
