Subject[PATCH -tip/cpus4096-v2] cpumask: fix memory leak and cpumask corruption
From: Hiroshi Shimamoto <h-shimamoto@ct.jp.nec.com>

On CONFIG_CPUMASK_OFFSTACK enabled kernel, when exiting
smp_call_function_many() without calling arch_send_call_function_ipi()
allbutself should be freed.

Also, the memory for allbutself shouldn't be freed when
arch_send_call_function_ipi() is called. The memory region will be
referenced in generic_smp_call_function_interrupt(). And the memory
will be freed at rcu_free_call_data().
