I got confused by that backtrace thing and NR_IPI vs MAX_IPI.
I think I got it now : we don't want to call trace_ipi_raise() for
IPI_CPU_BACKTRACE *but* we still need to alloc the desc and route it
through the generic IPI layers.

The only difference I can tell is that now we will get some trace events
for it via the handler entry/exit tracepoints - that shouldn't cause any
issue.
