I'm pretty sure the warning is correct, and we do rely on having
local_bh_disable(), otherwise we may end up taking a soft-IRQ and I
believe there are some things that could get messed up in that case.

So - I think the warning is there for a reason, and drivers should just
local_bh_disable() before calling into that. What's wrong with that?
