Sorry Mike, I didn't realize you had any patches against io_apic functions.
You might take a look at the second patch in this patchset, I tried to
eliminate some of the cpumask_t's from being defined on the stack and to
pass only pointers to them as args. I didn't do all that could be done,
but just the ones near the main functions I was touching. You may have a
better way of doing it then I did.

Feel free to do whatever with this patchset. (I'm not going to be
reachable until Monday.)

FYI, this patchset was built against linux-next.

Thanks,
Dean
