x86 smp: modify send_IPI_mask interface to accept cpumask_t pointers
Impact: cleanup, change parameter passing
* Change genapic interfaces to accept cpumask_t pointers where possible.
* Modify external callers to use cpumask_t pointers in function calls.
* Create new send_IPI_mask_allbutself which is the same as the
send_IPI_mask functions but removes smp_processor_id() from list.
This removes another common need for a temporary cpumask_t variable.
* Functions that used a temp cpumask_t variable for:
cpumask_t allbutme = cpu_online_map;
cpu_clear(smp_processor_id(), allbutme);
if (!cpus_empty(allbutme))
...
become:
if (!cpus_equal(cpu_online_map, cpumask_of_cpu(cpu)))
...
* Other minor code optimizations (like using cpus_clear instead of
CPU_MASK_NONE, etc.)
Applies to linux-2.6.tip/master.
