SubjectRe: [PATCH] irqflags: fix (at least latent) code generation issue

So this breaks a couple of non-x86 architectures, such as MIPS:

/home/mingo/tip/include/acpi/platform/aclinuxex.h: In function 'acpi_os_allocate':
/home/mingo/tip/include/acpi/platform/aclinuxex.h:86: error: implicit declaration of function 'arch_irqs_disabled'

Thanks,

Ingo
