It doesn't look like this patch is needed for v3.0-rt as the patch
addresses the new stop_machine_from_inactive_cpu() API used by the mtrr
code added by this commit:

commit 192d8857427dd23707d5f0b86ca990c3af6f2d74
Author: Suresh Siddha <suresh.b.siddha@...el.com>
Date:   Thu Jun 23 11:19:29 2011 -0700

    x86, mtrr: use stop_machine APIs for doing MTRR rendezvous


This was added in 3.1 so the patch is still required for v3.2-rt.
