locking: add typecheck on irqsave and friends for correct flags
There haave been several areas in the kernel where an int has been used for flags in local_irq_save() and friends instead of a long. This can cause some hard to debug problems on some architectures. This patch adds a typecheck inside the irqsave and restore functions to flag these cases.
