Christoph Lameter 15316ba81a [PATCH] add schedule_on_each_cpu() 
swap migration's isolate_lru_page() currently uses an IPI to notify other
processors that the lru caches need to be drained if the page cannot be
found on the LRU.  The IPI interrupt may interrupt a processor that is just
processing lru requests and cause a race condition.

This patch introduces a new function run_on_each_cpu() that uses the
keventd() to run the LRU draining on each processor.  Processors disable
preemption when dealing the LRU caches (these are per processor) and thus
executing LRU draining from another process is safe.

Thanks to Lee Schermerhorn <lee.schermerhorn@hp.com> for finding this race
condition.
