While there I'd like to note that some archs already support
__GENERIC_SOFT_INTERRUPTS_ALL_LEVELS (i.e. allow arbitrary IPLs for
soft interrupts). I'm not sure if there are any archs that have reasons
not to support this feature, my impression was that the restrictions on
IPLs happened to make the generic soft interrupt introduction less
intrusive.
