stop_machine: Remove stop_cpus_lock and lg_double_lock/unlock()
stop_two_cpus() and stop_cpus() use stop_cpus_lock to avoid the deadlock, we need to ensure that the stopper functions can't be queued "backwards" from one another. This doesn't look nice; if we use lglock then we do not really need stopper->lock, cpu_stop_queue_work() could use lg_local_lock() under local_irq_save(). OTOH it would be even better to avoid lglock in stop_machine.c and remove lg_double_lock(). This patch adds "bool stop_cpus_in_progress" set/cleared by queue_stop_cpus_work(), and changes cpu_stop_queue_two_works() to busy wait until it is cleared. queue_stop_cpus_work() sets stop_cpus_in_progress = T lockless, but after it queues a work on CPU1 it must be visible to stop_two_cpus(CPU1, CPU2) which checks it under the same lock. And since stop_two_cpus() holds the 2nd lock too, queue_stop_cpus_work() can not clear stop_cpus_in_progress if it is also going to queue a work on CPU2, it needs to take that 2nd lock to do this.
