So it looks like we should be using a different function instead of 
local_irq_disable().  We need something which in a non-RT build will 
disable interrupts on the local CPU, but in an RT build will merely 
disable preemption.  (In fact, every occurrence of local_irq_disable() 
in the USB subsystem probably should be changed in this way.)

Is there such a function?
