Aside from what Dave said about the REMOVE_TABLE_IPI_MASK thing, this
isn't right.

on_each_cpu_mask() includes the current cpu, while smp_call_function()
explicitly does not.

Yes, they all end up in smp_call_function_many_cond(), but the
on_each_cpu*() family will have SCF_RUN_LOCAL set, while the
smp_call_function*() family will not.
