804 * kick_all_cpus_sync - Force all cpus out of idle
805 *
806 * Used to synchronize the update of pm_idle function pointer. It's
807 * called after the pointer is updated and returns after the dummy
808 * callback function has been executed on all cpus. The execution of
809 * the function can only happen on the remote cpus after they have
810 * left the idle function which had been called via pm_idle function
811 * pointer. So it's guaranteed that nothing uses the previous pointer
812 * anymore.
