Hi all,

attached patch (2.5.64) contains small cleanup of RCU code:
    - move smp_processor_id() outside of irq disabled region in call_rcu();
    - consolidate multiple spin_unlock() in the rcu_check_quiescent_state(),
      remove some unneeded {} and make this function inline.

Tested and works (at least doesn't crash). Please consider applying.

Best regards.
