The funny thing is, there are about 3 different versions of smp_call_function and removing nonatomic would reduce the argument count (there are some architectures which use 'retry' in nonatomic's place) and i'm a bit wary of making other archs bend over for i386 these days. Perhaps renaming it to __unused or something similarly obvious.
