Subject: [PATCH] arm: fix lockdep warning of "unannotated irqs-off"(v2)

This patch fixes the lockdep warning of "unannotated irqs-off"[1].

After entering __irq_usr, arm core has disabled interrupt automatically,
but __irq_usr does not annotate the irq disable, so lockdep may complain
the warning if it has chance to check this in irq handler.

This patch adds trace_hardirqs_off in __irq_usr before entering irq_handler
to handle the irq, also calls ret_to_user_from_irq to avoid calling
disable_irq again.

This is also a fix for irq off tracer.
