George Anzinger 748f2edb52 [PATCH] x86 NMI: better support for debuggers
This patch adds a notify to the die_nmi notify that the system is about to
be taken down.  If the notify is handled with a NOTIFY_STOP return, the
system is given a new lease on life.

We also change the nmi watchdog to carry on if die_nmi returns.

This give debug code a chance to a) catch watchdog timeouts and b) possibly
allow the system to continue, realizing that the time out may be due to
debugger activities such as single stepping which is usually done with
"other" cpus held.
