Subject: [PATCH] irq_poll: Add local_bh_disable() in cpu_dead notifier

References: SLE Realtime Extension
Patch-mainline: Queued in subsystem maintainer repository
Git-commit: e097e0cb12375ba7e27ac416811775fe7edfda99
Git-repo: git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/rt/linux-rt-devel.git

__raise_softirq_irqoff() adds a bit to the pending sofirq mask and this
is it. The softirq won't be handled in a deterministic way but randomly
when an interrupt fires and handles the softirq in its irq_exit() routine or
if something randomly checks and handles pending softirqs in the call
chain before the CPU goes idle.

Add a local_bh_disable/enable() around the IRQ-off section which will
handle pending softirqs.
