This is just for cleaning up, right? However ->hardirq_context and
->softirq_context only defined when CONFIG_TRACE_IRQFLAGS=y.
So we should use macro like current_hardirq_context() here? Or
considering the two helpers introduced in my RFC:
http://lkml.kernel.org/g/1455602265-16490-2-git-send-email-boqun.f...@gmail.com
if you don't think that overkills ;-)
