1fb00c6cbd [PATCH] work around ppc64 bootup bug by making mutex-debugging save/restore irqs
It seems ppc64 wants to lock mutexes in early bootup code, with interrupts
disabled, and they expect interrupts to stay disabled, else they crash.

Work around this bug by making mutex debugging variants save/restore irq
flags.

73165b88ff [PATCH] fix i386 mutex fastpath on FRAME_POINTER && !DEBUG_MUTEXES
Call the mutex slowpath more conservatively - e.g.  FRAME_POINTERS can
change the calling convention, in which case a direct branch to the
slowpath becomes illegal.  Bug found by Hugh Dickins.
