OK, so how about this then? All three cases for both
smp_call_function_single() and smp_call_function_mask(). Data is always
freed in the ipi interrupt handler, since the 'wait' case is always
allocated on the stack.

Subject: [PATCH] Add generic helpers for arch IPI function calls

This adds kernel/smp.c which contains helpers for IPI function calls. In
addition to supporting the existing smp_call_function() in a more efficient
manner, it also adds a more scalable variant called smp_call_function_single()
for calling a given function on a single CPU only.

The core of this is based on the x86-64 patch from Nick Piggin, lots of
changes since then. "Alan D. Brunelle" <Alan.Brunelle-VXdhtT5mjnY@public.gmane.org> has
contributed lots of fixes and suggestions as well.
