Subject: [PATCH 0/2] Kill unused parameter to smp_call_function and friends

Hi,

It bothers me how the smp call functions accept a 'nonatomic' or 'retry'
parameter (depending on who you ask), but don't do anything with it.
So kill that silly thing.

Two patches here, one for smp_call_function*() and one for on_each_cpu().
This patchset applies on top of the generic-ipi patchset just sent out.
