[PATCH] sofirq: make rcu_irq_enter()/rcu_irq_exit() called in pairs

From: Lai Jiangshan
Date: Tue Oct 27 2009 - 04:00:42 EST



irq_enter() calls rcu_irq_enter() unconditionally,
the same as irq_exit() calls rcu_irq_exit().

It does not change the binary because rcu_irq_enter()
is dummy when !CONFIG_NO_HZ.

It's just a cleanup.
