Linus Torvalds 83d349f35e x86: don't send an IPI to the empty set of CPU's ...

The default_send_IPI_mask_logical() function uses the "flat" APIC mode
to send an IPI to a set of CPU's at once, but if that set happens to be
empty, some older local APIC's will apparently be rather unhappy.  So
just warn if a caller gives us an empty mask, and ignore it.

This fixes a regression in 2.6.30.x, due to commit 4595f9620 ("x86:
change flush_tlb_others to take a const struct cpumask"), documented
here:

	http://bugzilla.kernel.org/show_bug.cgi?id=13933

which causes a silent lock-up.  It only seems to happen on PPro, P2, P3
and Athlon XP cores.  Most developers sadly (or not so sadly, if you're
a developer..) have more modern CPU's.  Also, on x86-64 we don't use the
flat APIC mode, so it would never trigger there even if the APIC didn't
like sending an empty IPI mask.
