cessarily duplicate complex logic
but also introduces a possibility of deadlock when it races against
the generic stop_machine().

This patch implements stop_machine_from_inactive_cpu() to serve such
use cases.  Its functionality is basically the same as stop_machine();
however, it should be called from a CPU which isn't active and doesn't
depend on working scheduling on the calling CPU.

This is achieved by using busy loops for synchronization and
open-coding stop_cpus queuing and waiting with direct invocation of
fn() for local CPU inbetween.
