The function sync_runqueues_membarrier_state() should copy the membarrier state from the @mm received as parameter to each runqueue currently running tasks using that mm. However, the use of smp_call_function_many() skips the current runqueue, which is unintended. Replace by a call to on_each_cpu_mask().
