No instead of having lots of if (xyz_system) do_xyz_special()
go through smp_ops for the whole thing so that UV would just have a 
special smp_ops that has special implementions or wrappers. 

Oops I see smp_ops are currently only implemented
for 32bit. Ok do it only once smp_ops exist on 64bit too.
