Actually we have to do (1) unless we want to open a big can of worms
because we're currently shoehorning hartids into cpumasks, but cpumasks
are based on NR_CPUS for size. To do it right, we should have hartmasks,
but they may be very large and/or sparse.

I'll write a patch for on_cpus_async() now.

I'll write a patch adding this now too.
