The bisection finished, finally!

90b5363acd47 ("sched: Clean up scheduler_ipi()")

I don't see anything immediately obvious, but then again, I do not
claim to understand this code.  If you have additional diagnostics,
please let me know.

                                                Thanx, Paul

commit 90b5363acd4739769c3f38c1aff16171bd133e8c
Author: Peter Zijlstra (Intel) <pet...@infradead.org>

    sched: Clean up scheduler_ipi()
    
    The scheduler IPI has grown weird and wonderful over the years, time
    for spring cleaning.
    
    Move all the non-trivial stuff out of it and into a regular smp function
    call IPI. This then reduces the schedule_ipi() to most of it's former NOP
    glory and ensures to keep the interrupt vector lean and mean.
    
    Aside of that avoiding the full irq_enter() in the x86 IPI implementation
    is incorrect as scheduler_ipi() can be instrumented. To work around that
    scheduler_ipi() had an irq_enter/exit() hack when heavy work was
    pending. This is gone now.
