There are still some files containing .lock = SPIN_LOCK_UNLOCKED type
assignments which should be converted to __SPIN_LOCK_UNLOCKED().
Corrected spacing between __SPIN_LOCK_UNLOCKED and ( for ARM.

IMHO the last sentence shouldn't appear in the commit log. (If you
still want to let your readers know what you changed---generally a good
idea---you can do so after the triple-dash below.)
I don't know you patch series, but I'd expect that all archs don't want
the space between __SPIN_LOCK_UNLOCKED and (.
Other than that

Thinking about the ARM bit, I'll have to NAK this patch.

This lock is in the percpu data area. This means that when other CPUs
are brought online, and therefore other percpu areas are instantiated,
this lock will be mis-initialized (the pointers et.al. will be pointing
at the original percpu instance.)
So NAK, this will break.
We can either go back to a static array for this, initialize the lock
manually (though this could be problematical), or we require to go to
per-ipi type interrupts for all SMP architectures.

I believe right now we only use the argument of __SPIN_LOCK_UNLOCKED
as an identifier string for lockdep, but not for any pointers, so the
patch would actually do what was intended, but break if we ever start
relying on the pointer.
Maybe we can mangle the argument in some way to make sure it will break
at build time when that happens, e.g.
.lock = __SPIN_LOCK_UNLOCKED(ipi_data.__lock)
This would at least let us remove SPIN_LOCK_UNLOCKED.

Or do one of the things I've suggested - one of which I've just completed
the code changes for, and results in this lock going away completely.
It's not a nice idea to have percpu data written to by 'foreign' CPUs.
There are still some files containing .lock = SPIN_LOCK_UNLOCKED type
assignments which should be converted to __SPIN_LOCK_UNLOCKED().
--- Corrected spacing between __SPIN_LOCK_UNLOCKED and ( for ARM.
--- Resubmitting the patch with spacing fixes.
--- Removed ARM related changes after Russell King's NACK.
