3.4.110-rt140-rc1 stable review patch.
If anyone has any objections, please let me know.

------------------

From: Sebastian Andrzej Siewior <bigeasy@linutronix.de>

We unlock the lock while the interrupts are off. This isn't a problem
now but will get because the migrate_disable() + enable are not
symmetrical in regard to the status of interrupts.
