... similar to the current without_interrupts() helper.
What do you think about this?
I renamed the existing disable/enable API to with_irqs_disabled().
The new API for suspend/restore is with_irqs_suspended().
The old without_interrupts remains as deprecated alias.
I'm not so sure about the naming. Suggestions for better naming are welcome. :)
This is completely untested. Just for discussion.
