SPARC: SMP: Remove call to ipi_call_lock_irq()/ipi_call_unlock_irq()



ipi_call_lock/unlock() lock resp. unlock call_function.lock. This lock
protects only the call_function data structure itself, but it's
completely unrelated to cpu_online_mask. The mask to which the IPIs
are sent is calculated before call_function.lock is taken in
smp_call_function_many(), so the locking around set_cpu_online() is
pointless and can be removed.

Delay irq enable to after set_cpu_online().
