It's not necessary to keep IRQs disabled after the BKL has been dropped.
In fact i think IRQ-disabling doesnt have to be done at all, the patch
below ought to solve this scenario equally well, and should solve the PPC
side-effects too.

When auditd is congested the kernel's audit system leaks skb's.  First, it
takes them off the audit_buffer sklist at which point they are lost,
second, it allocates a new skb with 0 length payload.  Then (likely still
congested), it repeats this losing the new skb.  Plug the leak by making
sure to requeue the skb, and avoid audit_log_move() on 0 len audit_buffer.

Fix a subtle bug in error handling of ext2 xattrs.  When ext2_sync_inode()

Looks like we fixed only part of the problem earlier.  When the child moves
away from ptrace notify and resets the last_siginfo, sighand lock helps.
But if the child goes further in exit and releases the sighand, we need to
test that case too.  See ptrace_check_attach() and exit_sighand().  They
also use the tasklist_lock.

Followed Roland's suggestions on lock primitive and struct assignment.
