smp: Allocate smp_call_on_cpu() workqueue on stack too



The SMP IPI struct descriptor is allocated on the stack except for the
workqueue and lockdep complains:

  INFO: trying to register non-static key.
  the code is fine but needs lockdep annotation.
  turning off the locking correctness validator.
  CPU: 0 PID: 110 Comm: kworker/0:1 Not tainted 4.8.0-rc5+ #14
  Hardware name: Dell Inc. Precision T3600/0PTTT9, BIOS A13 05/11/2014
  Workqueue: events smp_call_on_cpu_callback

  Call Trace:

So allocate it on the stack too.
