[patch V4 part 1 03/36] sched: Clean up scheduler_ipi()

From: Thomas Gleixner
Date: Tue May 05 2020 - 10:24:47 EST


The scheduler IPI has grown weird and wonderful over the years, time
for spring cleaning.

Move all the non-trivial stuff out of it and into a regular smp function
call IPI. This then reduces the schedule_ipi() to most of it's former MOP
glory and ensures to keep the interrupt vector lean and mean.

Aside of that avoiding the full irq_enter() in the x86 IPI implementation
is incorrect as scheduler_ipi() can be instrumented. To work around that
scheduler_ipi() had an irq_enter/exit() hack when heavy work was
pending. This is gone now.
