Just for better readability I would have:

        if (work->flags & __IRQ_WORK_UNBOUND)
                llist_add(&work->llnode, &unbound_irq_work_list);
        else
                llist_add(&work->llnode, &__get_cpu_var(irq_work_list));

OK, I'm being a bit of an micro optimization freak here, but...

How about moving the list_empty() and BUG_ON into the
process_irq_work_list() call.

That is,

        if (list_empty(llnode))
                return;

        BUG_ON(!irqs_disabled());

That way we avoid the double xchg() that is done with the two calls to
llist_del_all().
