x86/mm: Avoid redundant interrupt disable in load_mm_cr4() load_mm_cr4() is always called with interrupts disabled from: - switch_mm_irqs_off() - refresh_pce(), which is a on_each_cpu() callback Thus, disabling interrupts in cr4_set/clear_bits() is redundant. Implement cr4_set/clear_bits_irqsoff() helpers, rename load_mm_cr4() to load_mm_cr4_irqsoff() and use the new helpers. The new helpers do not need a lockdep assert as __cr4_set() has one already. The renaming in combination with the checks in __cr4_set() ensure that any changes in the boundary conditions at the call sites will be detected.
