uhm, that's a bogus change - USE_GENERIC_SMP_HELPERS must not be set
on UP. This will break all UP compilations, on all x86 UP boxes:

kernel/softirq.c: In function '__try_remote_softirq':
kernel/softirq.c:522: error: implicit declaration of function '__smp_call_function_single'

so i've removed your patch for now.
