OK indeed it did have a couple of bugs. Firstly, I wasn't freeing the
data properly in the alloc && wait case. Secondly, I wasn't resetting
CSD_FLAG_WAIT in the for each cpu loop (so only the first CPU would
wait).

After those fixes, the patch boots and runs with the kmalloc commented
out (so it always executes the slowpath).

Nice debugging work.

I'd suggest something like the attached (boot tested) patch as the simple
fix for now.

I expect the benefits from the less synchronized, multiple-in-flight-data
global queue will still outweigh the costs of dynamic allocations. But
if worst comes to worst then we just go back to a globally synchronous
one-at-a-time implementation, but that would be pretty sad!

Eduard - Gabriel Munteanu 7babe8db99 Full conversion to early_initcall() interface, remove old interface
A previous patch added the early_initcall(), to allow a cleaner hooking of
pre-SMP initcalls.  Now we remove the older interface, converting all
existing users to the new one.

Jeremy Fitzhardinge 63cf13b77a generic ipi function calls: wait on alloc failure fallback
When a GFP_ATOMIC allocation fails, it falls back to allocating the
data on the stack and converting it to a waiting call.

Make sure we actually wait in this case.

Jens Axboe 8691e5a8f6 smp_call_function: get rid of the unused nonatomic/retry argument
It's never used and the comments refer to nonatomic and retry
interchangably. So get rid of it.

Jens Axboe 3d44223327 Add generic helpers for arch IPI function calls
This adds kernel/smp.c which contains helpers for IPI function calls. In
addition to supporting the existing smp_call_function() in a more efficient
manner, it also adds a more scalable variant called smp_call_function_single()
for calling a given function on a single CPU only.

The core of this is based on the x86-64 patch from Nick Piggin, lots of
changes since then. "Alan D. Brunelle" <Alan.Brunelle@hp.com> has
contributed lots of fixes and suggestions as well. Also thanks to
Paul E. McKenney <paulmck@linux.vnet.ibm.com> for reviewing RCU usage
and getting rid of the data allocation fallback deadlock.
