Hard interrupt do_ipsintr() could introduce double locks on
host->host_lock.
<Deadlock #1>
ips_eh_abort()
--> spin_loc(host->host_lock)
<interrupt>
--> do_ipsintr()
--> spin_lock(host->host_lock)
This flaw was found by an experimental static analysis tool I am
developing for irq-related deadlock.
To prevent the potential deadlock, the patch use spin_lock_irqsave()
on host->host_lock.
