[PATCH retry] arch/ia64/kvm/kvm-ia64.c: Add local_irq_restore in error handling code

[Julia Lawall]

From: Julia Lawall <julia@diku.dk>

There is a call to local_irq_restore in the normal exit case, so it would
seem that there should be one on an error return as well.

The semantic patch that finds this problem is as follows:
(http://www.emn.fr/x-info/coccinelle/)

// <smpl>
@@
expression l;
expression E,E1,E2;
@@

local_irq_save(l);
... when != local_irq_restore(l)
    when != spin_unlock_irqrestore(E,l)
    when any
    when strict
(
if (...) { ... when != local_irq_restore(l)
               when != spin_unlock_irqrestore(E1,l)
+   local_irq_restore(l);
    return ...;
}
|
if (...)
+   {local_irq_restore(l);
    return ...;
+   }
|
spin_unlock_irqrestore(E2,l);
|
local_irq_restore(l);
)
// </smpl>

Patch looks good to me:

Applied, thanks.
