Honestly, I don't really understand the changelog, but this looks wrong.

stop_one_cpu_sync() assumes that cpu == smp_processor_id/task_cpu(current),
and thus the stopper thread should preempt us at least after schedule()
(if CONFIG_PREEMPT_NONE), so we do not need to synchronize.

But this is not necessarily true? This task can migrate to another CPU
before cpu_stop_queue_work() ?
