'reclaim_memory' callback can race with a driver code as this callback
will be called from any memory pressure detected context.  To deal with
the case, this commit adds a spinlock in the 'xenbus_device'.  Whenever
'reclaim_memory' callback is called, the lock of the device which passed
to the callback as its argument is locked.  Thus, drivers registering
their 'reclaim_memory' callback should protect the data that might race
with the callback with the lock by themselves.

You need spin_lock_irqsave() here. Or maybe spin_lock() would be fine,
too? I can't see a reason why you'd want to disable irqs here.
