yes, set wake_cpu is better when try_to_wake_up().
Peter, Is it as a new patch?

I agree to use cond_resched(). https://lkml.org/lkml/2016/9/12/1228

for CONFIG_PREEMPT=y and CONFIG_PREEMPT_VOLUNTARY=y, this patch seems unnecessary.
1. when CONFIG_PREEMPT=y
stop_one_cpu()
->cpu_stop_queue_work()
->spin_unlock_irqrestore() (preempt_enable() calls __preempt_schedule())

2. when CONFIG_PREEMPT_VOLUNTARY=y
stop_one_cpu()
->wait_for_completion()
->...
->might_sleep() (calls _cond_resched()


so we really don't need "if defined(CONFIG_PREEMPT_NONE)"?

I also think without the "if defined(CONFIG_PREEMPT_NONE)",
the code is more clean,and the logic is still ok.
