Subject[PATCH 1/3] smp: reduce stack requirements for smp_call_function_mask
  * Cleanup cpumask_t usages in smp_call_function_mask to remove stack
overflow problem when NR_CPUS=4096. This removes over 1000 bytes
from the stack with NR_CPUS=4096.

Based on 2.6.27-rc5-git6.

Applies to linux-2.6.tip/master (with FUZZ).
