It's a one-time warning, not an actual crash, right?

So this commit was supposed to warn about instances where an IPI
is generated from hardirq context in essence.
But this:

... is syscall/ioctl context, so the warning is bogus - possibly
the notifier there runs with bhs disabled and thus
in_interrupt() triggers?
It should probably use in_irq() - while double checking whether
that works on non-genirq platforms.
Anyway, the commit needs more work so I've zapped the commit for
now.
Thanks,
Ingo
