Jiri reported a machine stuck in multi_cpu_stop() with
migrate_swap_stop() as function and with the following src,dst cpu
pairs: {11,  4} {13, 11} { 4, 13}

                        4       11      13

cpuM: queue(4 ,13)
                        *Ma
cpuN: queue(13,11)
                                *N      Na
                        *M              Mb
cpuO: queue(11, 4)
                        *O      Oa
                                *Nb
                        *Ob

Where *X denotes the cpu running the queueing of cpu-X and X[ab] denotes
the first/second queued work.

You'll observe the top of the workqueue for each cpu: 4,11,13 to be work
from cpus: M, O, N resp. IOW. deadlock.

Do away with the queueing trickery and introduce lg_double_lock() to
lock both CPUs and fully serialize the stop_two_cpus() callers instead
of the partial (and buggy) serialization we have now.
