That "REMOVE_TABLE_IPI_MASK" thing is pretty confusing. It *looks* like
a constant. It does *NOT* look at all like it consumes 'mm'. Worst
case, just create a local variable:
if (IS_ENABLED(CONFIG_ARCH_HAS_CPUMASK_BITS))
ipi_mask = mm_cpumask(mm);
else
ipi_mask = cpu_online_mask;
on_each_cpu_mask(ipi_mask, ...);
That's a billion times more clear and it'll compile down to the same thing.
I do think the CONFIG_ARCH_HAS_CPUMASK_BITS naming is also pretty
confusing, but I don't have any better suggestions. Maybe something
with "MM_CPUMASK" in it?
