ARM: SMP: avoid using bitmasks and locks for IPIs, use hardware instead
Avoid using bitmasks and locks in the percpu area for IPIs, and instead use individual software generated interrupts to identify the reason for the IPI. This avoids the problems of having spinlocks in the percpu area. Reviewed-by: Catalin Marinas <catalin.marinas@arm.com> Signed-off-by: Russell King <rmk+kernel@arm.linux.org.uk>
