Linus please include this patch in next kernel. In short Russell pointed
out that the risc port aren't handy in implementing a very lightweight
set bit atomic with respect to interrupts (so only atomic with respect
to the local cpu) because they are missing an "or" or "bit set"
instruction between a register and memory.
Having __cpu_raise_softirq atomic against interrupts only allows us to
re-enable irqs a few cycles before, so it's only a micro irq latency
optimization, it doesn't save cpu cycles so it doesn't worth to hurt
the risc chips for it.
Now both cpu_raise_softirq and __cpu_raise_softirq must be recalled with
irq disabled, only raise_softirq can be called in whatever irq state.
