After analyzing the elements that save_flags/cli/sti/restore_flags were
protecting, convert their usages to a global spinlock (the easiest and
most obvious next-step).  There were some usages of flags being
intentionally cached, because the code already knew the state of
interrupts.  These have been taken into account.

This allows us to remove CONFIG_BROKEN_ON_SMP.  Completely untested.
