I'm not sure whether the above is misproperly pasted or not, but if it
is correct, it shows a problem.
We can see from the first line that the target mask covers CPUs 1..11.
However, the call chain is for arch_send_call_function_single_ipi(),
which does:
smp_cross_call(cpumask_of(cpu), IPI_CALL_FUNC);
and cpumask_of(cpu) should only ever contain a single bit, and not
multiple bits which the output above suggests it does!
