With the new generic smp call function helpers, I noticed the code in
smp_message_recv was a single function call in many cases. While
getting the message number from the ipi data is easy, we can reduce
the path length by a function and data dependent switch by registering
seperate ipi actions for these simple calls.
Originally I left the ipi action array exposed, but then I realized the
registration code should be common too.
The three users each had their own name array, so I made a fourth
to convert all users to use a common one.

Perhaps we should make the common code look like an ipi action handler
and remove this last call? Currently we still have to allocate a stack
frame to load the return value.
v2: fix arg reversal noted by Geert Uytterhoeven
v3: fix missed variable rename in WARN
I was going to make the variable local, then wanted it global for
the error request cases, and missed the instance when WARN was not
evaluating the printk for powerpc.
Unfornately, it appears that we are somewhat unique with one external
interrupt but multiple ipi vectors: a grep of arch/*/kernel/* for
generic_call_function_interrupt shows:
alpha, arm, ia64, parisc, 390 demux messages on a sw bitvector (although
many use spinlock/read/clear/unlock vs our test and clear bit), and
x86, mips, and m32r demux before get_irq, directly calling irq_enter/irq_exit,
leaving sh as the only one that has multiple ipis but uses request_irq/get_irq,
and they clear the source bit in the caller to the message demux and would
have minimal benefit from a signature change (they could get tail call
but not direct call). They could gain to a similar change to this.
