If spin_lock_irqsave is called twice in a row with the same second
argument, the interrupt state at the point of the second call overwrites
the value saved by the first call.  Indeed, the second call does not
need to save the interrupt state, so it is changed to a simple
spin_lock.

The semantic match that finds this problem is as follows:
