Hmm, so the problem was that interrupts got enabled on microblaze (or
lockdep thought they were), so we need to figure out why that is so
instead of ensuring that it is so.

/me goes poke about in the microblaze code..

So on fork() the child ip gets set to ret_from_fork(), then when we wake
the child we'll eventually schedule to it. So we get a context switch
like X -> child.

Then X calls schedule()->context_switch()->switch_to() which will
continue at ret_from_fork()->schedule_tail()->finish_task_switch()->
finish_lock_switch()->spin_acquire(&rq->lock.depmap..)

Now the lockdep report says that at that point interrupts were enabled,
and I can't quite see how that would happen, we go into switch_to() with
interrupts disabled (assuming !__ARCH_WANT_INTERRUPTS_ON_CTXSW), so the
whole ret_from_fork()->... path should run with interrupts disabled as
well.

I can't find where it would have enabled IRQs. Maybe the current
microblaze code doesn't suffer this, or I simply missed it in the
entry.S magic -- its not like I can actually read microblaze asm well.

Does it still explode like back then, if so, can you see where it
enables IRQs?
