[PATCH] stop_machine() vs. synchronous IPI send deadlock

This fixes deadlock of stop_machine() vs.  synchronous IPI send.  The
problem is that stop_machine() disables interrupts before disabling
preemption on other CPUs.  So if another CPU is preempted and then calls
something like flush_tlb_all() it will deadlock with CPU doing
stop_machine() and which can't process IPI due to disabled IRQs.

I changed stop_machine() to do the same things exactly as it does on other
CPUs, i.e.  it should disable preemption first on _all_ CPUs including
itself and only after that disable IRQs.
