indeed ...

fixed these, and have categorized every change whether it's safe,
known-unsafe or unknown-effect, and commented the latter two.

i also removed the save_flags() and restore_flags() macros on SMP which 
were left there by accident.

new patch is at:

  http://redhat.com/~mingo/remove-irqlock-patches/remove-irqlock-2.5.27-A3

(there's one more open bug, i can now see the 'exited with preempt_count
1' messages.)
