We need to make a habit of checking cpu_online(i) in here. I'd rather
this consume 4 cachelines than 32, thanks ;)
Also, if we decide to allocate each CPU's per-cpu memory separately
any for-all-CPUs loop which uses per-cpu data MUST make this check,
else it'll oops.
Not applicable in this case, and alas the cpu iterator helper macros
(for_each_online_cpu(), etc) are currently AWOL, but...

"scheduling while atomic". You'll need to reacquire the runqueue pointer
on waking up.

And here too.
Apart from that, looks very good, thanks.
