Venki Pallipadi 783e391b7b x86: Simplify cpu_idle_wait 
This patch also resolves hangs on boot:
	http://lkml.org/lkml/2008/2/23/263
	http://bugzilla.kernel.org/show_bug.cgi?id=10093

The bug was causing once-in-few-reboots 10-15 sec wait during boot on
certain laptops.

Earlier commit 40d6a14662 added
smp_call_function in cpu_idle_wait() to kick cpus that are in tickless
idle.  Looking at cpu_idle_wait code at that time, code seemed to be
over-engineered for a case which is rarely used (while changing idle
handler).

Below is a simplified version of cpu_idle_wait, which just makes a dummy
smp_call_function to all cpus, to make them come out of old idle handler
and start using the new idle handler.  It eliminates code in the idle
loop to handle cpu_idle_wait.
