I don't think that is going to fix it. The issue here is that an
interrupt may happen while we are holding the lock and in that
interrupt we try to take some other lock, which another thread has
taken before the cache lock... I'm afraid using the irqsave/irqrestore
locking is the only possible fix here... (Either that or giving up on
the proper least-recently-used logic.)
