Subject: [PATCH] Fix xen_flush_tlb_others

The commit

        x86: change flush_tlb_others to take a const struct cpumask

causes xen_flush_tlb_others to allocate a multicall and then issue it
without initializing it in the case where the cpumask is empty,
leading to:

Since empty cpumasks are rare and undoing an xen_mc_entry() is tricky
just issue such requests normally.
