smp_call_function always runs its callback in hard IRQ context, even on
PREEMPT_RT, where spinlocks can sleep. So we need to use raw spinlocks
to ensure we aren't waiting on a sleeping task. See the first bug report
for more discussion.

In the longer term it would be better to switch to some other
abstraction.
