sg_copy_{from,to}_buffer() call sg_copy_buffer() which uses an
sg_mapping_iter with flag SG_MITER_ATOMIC, so then sg_miter_next() uses
kmap_atomic() to map pages.
A long time ago the kmap_atomic API required a slot to be provided which
risked the possibility that other code might use the same slot at the
same time. Disabling interrupts prevented the possibility of an interrupt
handler doing that. However, that went away with
commit 3e4d3af501cc ("mm: stack based kmap_atomic()").
Remove local_irq_{save,restore}() around sg_copy_{from,to}_buffer().

Linux kernel
============
There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can
be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read
Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first.
In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``. The formatted documentation can also be read online at:
https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/
There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation.
Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the
requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about
the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
