Sean Young 1451b93223 media: gpio-ir-tx: spinlock is not needed to disable interrupts
During bit-banging the IR on a gpio pin, we cannot be scheduled or have
anything interrupt us, else the generated signal will be incorrect.
Therefore, we need to disable interrupts on the local cpu. This also
disables preemption.

local_irq_disable() does exactly what we need and does not require a
spinlock.

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.
