stop_machine: make stop_machine safe and efficient to call early

Make stop_machine() safe to call early in boot, before SMP has been set up, by simply calling the callback function directly if there's only one CPU online. [ Fixes from AKPM: - add comment - local_irq_flags, not save_flags - also call hard_irq_disable() for systems which need it Tejun suggested using an explicit flag rather than just looking at the online cpu count. ]
