This looks half thought out. You rely on the caller getting the global
bit right. There should be a sanity check for this versus
data->ipi_mask and also you need to validate nbits.

Yes I might have rushed this part as I did it last. I'll improve it.


+EXPORT_SYMBOL(irq_send_ipi);
EXPORT_SYMBOL_GPL please



OK.
