clockevent: Prevent dead lock on clockevents_lock

Browse Source 
Currently clockevents_notify() is called with interrupts enabled at
some places and interrupts disabled at some other places.

This results in a deadlock in this scenario.

cpu A holds clockevents_lock in clockevents_notify() with irqs enabled
cpu B waits for clockevents_lock in clockevents_notify() with irqs disabled
cpu C doing set_mtrr() which will try to rendezvous of all the cpus.

This will result in C and A come to the rendezvous point and waiting
for B. B is stuck forever waiting for the spinlock and thus not
reaching the rendezvous point.

Fix the clockevents code so that clockevents_lock is taken with
interrupts disabled and thus avoid the above deadlock.

Also call lapic_timer_propagate_broadcast() on the destination cpu so
that we avoid calling smp_call_function() in the clockevents notifier
chain.

This issue left us wondering if we need to change the MTRR rendezvous
logic to use stop machine logic (instead of smp_call_function) or add
a check in spinlock debug code to see if there are other spinlocks
which gets taken under both interrupts enabled/disabled conditions.
