Now that I finally found time to look into this a little, I wonder what
you expect: Code in linux/irqflags.h ahead of the above conditional
uses arch_irqs_disable():

#define raw_irqs_disabled()             (arch_irqs_disabled())

so it would seem to me that architectures are required to have the
latter available. And in fact it would seem very logical to me if pieces
like the definition of irqs_disabled() would be pulled out of that
conditional, as their behavior shouldn't (for this one) or already
doesn't (for e.g. irqs_disabled_flags() and local_save_flags()) differ
between the two cases. Would, short of adding arch_irqs_disabled()
for all architectures currently lacking it, uniformly using the definition
from the #if portion of the conditional be an acceptable thing? If not,
do you have any other suggestion on how to resolve this?
