Which duplication? All I see there is macros which are non-trivial in
the SMP case, and very trivial in the non-SMP case.

Well, that's only to be expected: in non-SMP case it is trivial, and in
the SMP case it is not.

Please be more specific :)

I don't know, I guess the wiki has pointers. Probably there is also
reading about the Mach kernel in general (GNU Mach is really largely
based on the Mach family).
