any real or previous usage of the IRQ-related seqlock calls?

[Robert P. J. Day]

  i was curious about the level of usage of the various locking
features in the kernel, so i was poking around using
http://lxr.linux.no, and checked out the seqlock-related calls, and
noticed that all of the IRQ-related seqlock calls don't seem to be
used in the current kernel tree at all:

http://lxr.linux.no/linux+v2.6.38/include/linux/seqlock.h#L239

if you select any of those calls starting at "write_seqlock_irqsave",
it doesn't look like any of them are currently used.  do they simply
have no current value?  just curious.
