Log:
  cyclic xcall: use smp_no_rendevous_barrier as setup function parameter
  
  In this case we call target function only on a single CPU and do not
  need any synchronization at the setup stage.
  
  It's a bit non-obvious but setup function of NULL means that
  smp_rendezvous_cpus waits for all CPUs to arrive at the rendezvous
  point, but without doing any actual setup.  While using
  smp_no_rendevous_barrier means that each CPU proceeds on its own
  schedule without any synchronization whatsoever.
