[PATCH v3 [resend] 02/18] Revert "smp: Fix SMP function call empty cpu mask race"

This reverts commit f44310b98ddb7f0d06550d73ed67df5865e3eda5.

Commit f44310b98ddb7 "smp: Fix SMP function call empty cpu mask race"
introduced field call_function_data->cpumask_ipi to resolve a race
condition in smp_call_function_many().

Later commit 9a46ad6d6df3 "smp: make smp_call_function_many() use logic
similar to smp_call_function_single()" fixed the same issue in another
way when optimizing smp_call_function_many(), which then obsoletes
changes introduced by commit f44310b98ddb7. So revert it.
