[RFC PATCH 5/6] stop_machine: change stop_two_cpus() just use stop_cpu(), kill lg_double_lock/unlock

From: Oleg Nesterov
Date: Thu Jun 25 2015 - 22:17:45 EST


Now that stop_cpus() is not "exclusive" if cpumask's don't overlap, we
can turn stop_two_cpus() into a trivial wrapper on top of stop_cpus().

Note: if zalloc_cpumask_var(cpumask, GFP_KERNEL) is not an option, we
can reimplement this function using stop_work_{alloc,free}_one().
