This (preempt off followed by bh off) may cause warnings. That would be
bh is disabled on the CPU, it gets preempted by _this_ which disables
first preemption and then bh.
I hid the code under CONFIG_PREEMPT_RT_NEEDS_BH_LOCK so it shouldn't be
a problem in the long term I think. So just if you see a warning here
under RT you know why :)
