Something like the below avoids all that. Paravirt will still need fixing.

The thing is, many many smp_reschedule_interrupt() invocations don't
actually execute anything much at all and are only send to tickle the
return to user path (which does the actual preemption).

Having to do the whole irq_enter/irq_exit dance just for this unlikely
debug case totally blows.
