x86 smp: modify send_IPI_mask interface to accept cpumask_t pointers

Browse source 
Impact: cleanup, change parameter passing

  * Change genapic interfaces to accept cpumask_t pointers where possible.

  * Modify external callers to use cpumask_t pointers in function calls.

  * Create new send_IPI_mask_allbutself which is the same as the
    send_IPI_mask functions but removes smp_processor_id() from list.
    This removes another common need for a temporary cpumask_t variable.

  * Functions that used a temp cpumask_t variable for:

	cpumask_t allbutme = cpu_online_map;

	cpu_clear(smp_processor_id(), allbutme);
	if (!cpus_empty(allbutme))
		...

    become:

	if (!cpus_equal(cpu_online_map, cpumask_of_cpu(cpu)))
		...

  * Other minor code optimizations (like using cpus_clear instead of
    CPU_MASK_NONE, etc.)

Applies to linux-2.6.tip/master.
