sgi-xp: nested calls to spin_lock_irqsave()
The code here has a nested spin_lock_irqsave(). It's not needed since
IRQs are already disabled and it causes a problem because it means that
IRQs won't be enabled again at the end. The second call to
spin_lock_irqsave() will overwrite the value of irq_flags and we can't
restore the proper settings.
