That was my v1, which I still happen to have lying around:

Subject: initialise tlbflush locks before any callers

Now that flush_tlb_all() is implemented via flush_tlb_others() the later
can be called before the core_initcalls are run. Explicitly call
init_smp_flush early on.

Also there is no need for init_smp_flush to be __cpuinit.
