[RFC] Rename _bh to _softirq

Hi Folks,

Old BHs have been almost completely replaced with tasklets and softirqs.
Should we then rename _bh to _softirq ?
i.e
         local_bh_disable() -> local_softirq_disable()
         spin_lock_bh() -> spin_lock_softirq()
         bh_lock_sock() -> softirq_sock_lock()
         etc

Or maybe just 'si' if softirq is too long.

bh prefix and postfix seem to be confusing now.
