ARM: 9294/2: vfp: Fix broken softirq handling with instrumentation enabled
Commit 62b95a7b44d1 ("ARM: 9282/1: vfp: Manipulate task VFP state with softirqs disabled") replaced the en/disable preemption calls inside the VFP state handling code with en/disabling of soft IRQs, which is necessary to allow kernel use of the VFP/SIMD unit when handling a soft IRQ. Unfortunately, when lockdep is enabled (or other instrumentation that enables TRACE_IRQFLAGS), the disable path implemented in asm fails to perform the lockdep and RCU related bookkeeping, resulting in spurious warnings and other badness. Set let's rework the VFP entry code a little bit so we can make the local_bh_disable() call from C, with all the instrumentations that happen to have been configured. Calling local_bh_enable() can be done from asm, as it is a simple wrapper around __local_bh_enable_ip(), which is always a callable function.
