bf20029677 stop_machine: Remove deprecated stop_machine_run
Everyone should be using stop_machine() now.  The staged API
transition helped life in linux-next.

eeec4fad96 stop_machine(): stop_machine_run() changed to use cpu mask
Instead of a "cpu" arg with magic values NR_CPUS (any cpu) and ~0 (all
cpus), pass a cpumask_t.  Allow NULL for the common case (where we
don't care which CPU the function is run on): temporary cpumask_t's
are usually considered bad for stack space.

This deprecates stop_machine_run, to be removed soon when all the
callers are dead.

ffdb5976c4 Simplify stop_machine
stop_machine creates a kthread which creates kernel threads.  We can
create those threads directly and simplify things a little.  Some care
must be taken with CPU hotunplug, which has special needs, but that code
seems more robust than it was in the past.

5c2aed6225 stop_machine: add ALL_CPUS option
-allow stop_mahcine_run() to call a function on all cpus. Calling
 stop_machine_run() with a 'ALL_CPUS' invokes this new behavior.
 stop_machine_run() proceeds as normal until the calling cpu has
 invoked 'fn'. Then, we tell all the other cpus to call 'fn'.

Initial git repository build. I'm not bothering with the full history,
even though we have it. We can create a separate "historical" git
archive of that later if we want to, and in the meantime it's about
3.2GB when imported into git - space that would just make the early
git days unnecessarily complicated, when we don't have a lot of good
infrastructure for it.

Let it rip!
