This patch proposes to remove the use of the IRQF_DISABLED flag

It's a NOOP since 2.6.35 and it will be removed one day.
Laxman, care to comment? I'm not sure why the code explicitly specifies
IRQF_DISABLED if it's already a no-op. Perhaps the code expects
IRQF_DISABLED to do something, and hence there's some bug that needs to
be fixed because of it doesn't?


We are having this flag in our downstream driver from very long and hence this is there when I wrote for the upstream driver. I checked with BT without this flag and it worked fine so it is fine to remove this flag.
