If allocation of kernel threads for stop_machine_run() is the problem,

What happens when
1. use CONIFG_4KSTACK
or
2. make use of stop_machine_create(), stop_machine_destroy().
   A new interface added by this commit.
  http://git.kernel.org/?p=linux/kernel/git/torvalds/  linux-2.6.git;a=commit;h=9ea09af3bd3090e8349ca2899ca2011bd94cda85
   You can do no-fail stop_machine_run().

Thanks,
