Peter Zijlstra 52103be07d smp: Optimize flush_smp_call_function_queue()
The call_single_queue can contain (two) different callbacks,
synchronous and asynchronous. The current interrupt handler runs them
in-order, which means that remote CPUs that are waiting for their
synchronous call can be delayed by running asynchronous callbacks.

Rework the interrupt handler to first run the synchonous callbacks.

Linux kernel
============

There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can
be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read
Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first.

In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``.  The formatted documentation can also be read online at:

    https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/

There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation.

Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the
requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about
the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
