[PATCH] Fix unlock ordering in smp_callin

From: Alan D. Brunelle <Alan.Brunelle_at_hp.com>

One should normally unlock in the reverse order of the lock calls,
and in this case there certainly is no reason not to.

To better see the results (with locks included), here's the complete
section of corrected code:

        lock_ipi_calllock();
        spin_lock(&vector_lock);
        /* Setup the per cpu irq handling data structures */
        __setup_vector_irq(cpuid);
        cpu_set(cpuid, cpu_online_map);
        per_cpu(cpu_state, cpuid) = CPU_ONLINE;
        spin_unlock(&vector_lock);
        unlock_ipi_calllock();
