But then you enter __do_softirq() with softirq_count() == SOFTIRQ_OFFSET.
__do_softirq() calls softirq_handle_begin() which then sets it back to 
SOFTIRQ_DISABLE_OFFSET...

You escape from there with a correct preempt_count() but still the softirq 
executes
under SOFTIRQ_DISABLE_OFFSET and not SOFTIRQ_OFFSET, making 
in_serving_softirq() false.

Thanks.
