23 - No shared variables, all the data are CPU local.
24 - If a softirq needs serialization, let it serialize itself
25 by its own spinlocks.
26 - Even if softirq is serialized, only local cpu is marked for
27 execution. Hence, we get something sort of weak cpu binding.
28 Though it is still not clear, will it result in better locality
29 or will not.
31 Examples:
32 - NET RX softirq. It is multithreaded and does not require
33 any global serialization.
34 - NET TX softirq. It kicks software netdevice queues, hence
35 it is logically serialized per device, but this serialization
36 is invisible to common code.
37 - Tasklets: serialized wrt itself.
