For these cases the callers make sure: 1) The cpus indicated are online. 2) The current cpu is not in the list of indicated cpus. Therefore we can pass a pointer to the mask directly. One of the motivations in this transformation is to make use of "&cpumask_of_cpu(cpu)" which evaluates to a pointer to constant data in the kernel and thus takes up no stack space. Hopefully someone in the future will change the interface of arch_send_call_function_ipi() such that it passes a const cpumask_t pointer so that this will optimize ever further.
