So the ordering in the enable and disable part regarding BH is
important. First BH, then preemption or IRQ.

The same in the unlock part so that BH is unlocked in preemptible
context.
Now if you need bh lock/unlock in atomic context (either with disabled
IRQs or preemption) then I would dig out the atomic-bh part again and
make !RT only without the preempt_disable() section around about which
one you did complain.

This piece above, I don't understand. I had it running for a while and
it didn't explode. Let me try TREE01 for 30min without that piece.

And this is needed because we can't lock/unlock bh while atomic.
