And does it wrong.. Also does it really matter to GCC that we init the
bool? Surely it can see its 0 and put it in .bss anyway?

Its only 84, so I didn't care to wrap it, its more readable this way,
but if you want it split split it like:

int
stop_two_cpus(unsigned int cpu1, unsigned int cpu2, cpu_stop_fn_t fn, void *arg)

Or if you really have to split arguments to it in groups that make
sense; like:

int stop_two_cpus(unsigned int cpu1, unsigned int cpu2,
		  cpu_stop_fn_t fn, void *arg)

But really, these are two unrelated changes, and should therefore not be
in a single patch.
