void walk_groups(bool (*up)(void *), void (*down)(void *), void *data)
{
	struct tmigr_cpu *tmc = this_cpu_ptr(&tmigr_cpu);
	struct group *stack[tmigr_hierarchy_levels];
	struct group *group = tmc->group;
	int i = 0;

	raw_spin_lock(&tmc->lock);

	do {
		stack[i++] = group;

		if (up(data))
			break;

	} while ((group = group->parent));

	do {
		group = stack[--i];

		down(data);

	} while (group != tmc->group);

	raw_spin_unlock(&tmc->lock);
}

Something like so, iterates the hierarchy for the current CPU and calls
@up and @down at each level in the proper order. And has obvious stack
usage.
