Why would it kill the cpu? Only miss the event AFAICS. See patch below.

Only cpu0 requests this ATM, and the IPIs to set function/data are
protected by a spinlock which serializes between cpu0<->target.

Its responsability of the caller to synchronization with termination. 

Are you OK with this:



test: allow functions to execute on non-irq context remotely

Which allows code to execute on remote cpus while receiving interrupts.

Also move late smp initialization to common code, and the smp loop
to C code.
