The WARN_ON_ONCE() should also include the !preempt_count().

Same here.

Again, the use of "this_cpu_ptr" is wrong. Gah! We should nuke all of
that crap.

No biggy, but I usually find:

	if (ops->flags & FL_GLOBAL_CONTROL)

more readable. With what you have, I looked at that condition three
times to figure out what was different between what was '&'d with the
flags and what was being equal too. Usually the ((flags & X) == Y) is
done to check if a subset of bits are set within a mask of bits.

Much better and easier to read :)

The rest looks good.
