The current order of calls within trace_hardirqs_off() would provoke an
"unannotated irqs-off" WARNING.

This warning was reported by check_flags() when it found that the hardirqs has
been disabled but the irq-flags state, hardirqs_enabled, has not been cleared.

Check_flags() is called via trace_hardirqs_off(), and trace_hardirqs_off() will
be called by functions kind of local_irq_disable() if CONFIG_TRACE_IRQFLAGS has
been enabled.

The calltrace from functions kind of local_irq_diasble() to check_flags()
simplied as below:

local_irq_disable()
  |- trace_hardirqs_off()
      |- trace_hardirqs_off_caller()
          |- preemptirqsoff_hist()
There is no preemptirqsoff_hist() function in the kernel.
Sorry, it's a mistake. It should have been "trace_hardirqs_off_caller()", defined in file
kernel/locking/lockdep.c.

And it will call trace_preemptirqsoff_hist_rcuidle(), trace_preemptirqsoff_hist_rcuidle will()
call check_flags().

I will correct it. And after carefully checking the patch, I will re-send it.

Very very sorry for my mistake. That wasted your time.

             |- __DO_TRACE()
                |- rcu_dereference_sched()
                    |- rcu_read_lock_sched_held()
                        |- lock_is_held()
                            |- check_flags()

The order of calls within trace_hardirqs_off() can be simplified as below:

local_irq_disable()
  |- raw_local_irq_disable()
  |- trace_hardirqs_off()
      |- trace_hardirqs_off() --> check_flags()
      |- hardirqs_enabled = 0

We could find that the call to check_flags() has been made between disabling
hardirqs and clearing hardirqs_enabled. That will definitely cause an
"unannotated irqs-off" warning.

To fix this "unannotated irqs-off" warning, we must call trace_hardirqs_off()
after that we clear hardirqs_enabled.
