SubjectRe: [PATCH 17/20] SMP: Implement on_cpu()

Yes, but the few instances should be relatively easy to fix.

The low level function checks for this anyways. Instead of erroring
it should just DTRT.

on_each_cpu() was imho always a mistake. It would have been better
to just fix smp_call_function() directly
