This is all the lockdep stuff - it adds instrumentation to local_irq_foo().

`current == 0' implies a scrogged thread_info. I'm not sure what debugging
we could usefully add to the pagefault handler to detect that. Apart from
getting a good backtrace. Which the x86_64 guys have broken.
Laurent, please disable CONFIG_STACK_UNWIND and try again - that way we
should be able to see whereabouts the thread-info got corrupted.
