No, no, no!!

These are used in the core infrastructure of removing stop machine from
ftrace.

Correct, no one currently uses them, but that's because they were needed
for the arch dependent code. I have patches for both PPC and x86 to
remove stop machine, and I want the PPC changes to go through the PPC
tree.

I pushed the changes for the core infrastructure so that we don't have
dependencies between different archs.

Please read: commit c88fd8634ea68e74c7d19fd2621b4078fd22864c

If you remove these you would break:

Big NACK!
