[IUCV]: wrong irq-disabling locking at module load time
Linux may hang when running af_iucv socket programs concurrently
with a load of module netiucv. iucv_register() tries to take the
iucv_table_lock with spin_lock_irq. This conflicts with
iucv_connect() which has a need for an smp_call_function while
holding the iucv_table_lock.
Solution: use bh-disabling locking in iucv_register()
