Excellent.  I had a premonition so it is already committed.

Do note that smp_call_function_mask() emulation is pretty bad in terms 
of performance on large multicores.  On a dual code it's basically 
equivalent to mainline, I guess it's okay for four-way, but above 
four-way you will need either mainline or a better 
smp_call_function_mask() (which is nontrivial but doable).
