Series arm64: Add IPI for backtraces / kgdb; try to use NMI for some IPIs | expand

From: Mark Rutland <mark.rutland@arm.com>

To enable NMI backtrace and KGDB's NMI cpu roundup, we need to free up
at least one dedicated IPI.

On arm64 the IPI_WAKEUP IPI is only used for the ACPI parking protocol,
which itself is only used on some very early ARMv8 systems which
couldn't implement PSCI.

Remove the IPI_WAKEUP IPI, and rely on the IPI_RESCHEDULE IPI to wake
CPUs from the parked state. This will cause a tiny amonut of redundant
work to check the thread flags, but this is miniscule in relation to the
cost of taking and handling the IPI in the first place. We can safely
handle redundant IPI_RESCHEDULE IPIs, so there should be no functional
impact as a result of this change.

I have no idea how to test this. I just took Mark's patch and jammed
it into my series. Logicially the patch seems reasonable to me.

(no changes since v11)

Changes in v11:
- arch_send_wakeup_ipi() now takes an unsigned int.

Changes in v10:
- ("arm64: smp: Remove dedicated wakeup IPI") new for v10.

I was backporting this to our ChromeOS kernels and our build test bot
noticed that arch_smp_send_reschedule() didn't exist in older kernels.
That's fine--I can always adjust this patch when backporting or
cherry-pick extra patches, but it made me wonder. Is there a reason
you chose to use arch_smp_send_reschedule() directly here instead of
smp_send_reschedule()? I guess the only difference is that you're
bypassing the tracing. Is that on purpose? Should we add a comment
about it, or change this to smp_send_reschedule()?

Thanks!

FWIW, I posted a patch changing this to smp_send_reschedule(). Please
yell if this is incorrect.
