Subject: [PATCH 2/4] stop_machine: reimplement using cpuhog
Reimplement stop_machine using cpuhog. As cpuhogs are guaranteed to
be available for all online cpus, stop_machine_create/destroy() are no
longer necessary and removed.
With resource management and synchronization handled by cpuhog, the
new implementation is much simpler. Asking the cpuhog to execute the
stop_cpu() state machine on all online cpus with cpu hotplug disabled
is enough.
stop_machine itself doesn't need to manage any global resources
anymore, so all per-instance information is rolled into struct
stop_machine_data and the mutex and all static data variables are
removed.
The previous implementation created and destroyed RT workqueues as
necessary which made stop_machine() calls highly expensive on very
large machines. According to Dimitri Sivanich, preventing the dynamic
creation/destruction makes booting faster more than twice on very
large machines. cpuhog resources are preallocated for all online cpus
and should have the same effect.
