[RFC PATCH v2 8/8] sched, smp: Trace smp callback causing an IPI

The newly-introduced ipi_send_cpumask tracepoint has a "callback" parameter
which so far has only been fed with NULL.
While CSD_TYPE_SYNC/ASYNC and CSD_TYPE_IRQ_WORK share a similar backing
struct layout (meaning their callback func can be accessed without caring
about the actual CSD type), CSD_TYPE_TTWU doesn't even have a function
attached to its struct. This means we need to check the type of a CSD
before eventually dereferencing its associated callback.
This isn't as trivial as it sounds: the CSD type is stored in
__call_single_node.u_flags, which get cleared right before the callback is
executed via csd_unlock(). This implies checking the CSD type before it is
enqueued on the call_single_queue, as the target CPU's queue can be flushed
before we get to sending an IPI.
Furthermore, send_call_function_single_ipi() only has a CPU parameter, and
would need to have an additional argument to trickle down the invoked
function. This is somewhat silly, as the extra argument will always be
pushed down to the function even when nothing is being traced, which is
unnecessary overhead.
Two options present themselves:
a) Create copies of send_call_function_{single_ipi, ipi_mask}() that take
an extra argument used for tracing, so that codepaths remain unchanged
when tracing isn't in effect (a sort of manual -fipa-sra).
b) Stash the CSD func in somewhere as a side effect that
the portion of send_call_function_{single_ipi, ipi_mask}() under the
tracepoint's static key can fetch.
a) creates redundant code, and b) is quite fragile due to requiring extra
care for "reentrant" functions (async SMP calls).
This implements a).
