Subject: [PATCH] Wrong cpumask_of_node usage in kernel/smp.c


I am getting dump_stack from cpumask_of_node() with recent kernels.
Dump stack msg that repeats few times

Looks like a bug from changeset

    generic-ipi: Add smp_call_function_any()
    
    Andrew points out that acpi-cpufreq uses cpumask_any, when it really
    would prefer to use the same CPU if possible (to avoid an IPI).  In
    general, this seems a good idea to offer.
