Linus,

please pull the latest smp/core branch from:

   git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/tip/tip.git smp-core-2025-09-29

up to:  ccf09357ffef: smp: Fix up and expand the smp_call_function_many() kerneldoc

An update of the stale smp_call_function_many() documentation to bring it
back in sync with the actual implementation.

Thanks,

	tglx
