Nit:

Both the fact that we don't set 'ret' here and the fact that the label
is named 'ipi_mask_done' -- which sounds like 'all OK' at least to me --
contribute to the feeling that we just skip sending IPIs in some cases.

I would prefer to see something like

else {
   ret = -EFAULT;
   goto irq_restore_exit;
}

... and why in the first place do we need to make this function return
'bool' then? Let's just make it return 'int'.
