It needs a running smp_call_function() to be interrupted by the timer

On our 2.6.10-based kernel its basically trivial to reproduce, and the posted fix doesn't solve the issue.

One of our guys is trying to track it down. As yet we don't know if it's the vanilla code or the patches on top that contain the bug.
