Mark tripped over the creative irqflags handling in the IO-APIC timer
delivery check which ends up doing:
local_irq_save(flags);
local_irq_enable();
local_irq_restore(flags);
which triggered a new consistency check he's working on required for
replacing the POPF based restore with a conditional STI.
That code is a historical mess and none of this is needed. Make it
straightforward use local_irq_disable()/enable() as that's all what is
required. It is invoked from interrupt enabled code nowadays.

Linux kernel
============
There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can
be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read
Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first.
In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``. The formatted documentation can also be read online at:
https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/
There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation.
Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the
requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about
the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
