[PATCH 2/2] x86/platform/uv: Use low priority low frequency NMI call chain

[Mike Travis]

Use the new NMI call chain NMI_LAST instead of the NMI_UNKNOWN call
chain to eliminate the WARNING message about having multiple NMI
handlers registering on the NMI UNKNOWN call chain.

This "call only when not already claimed by another NMI handler" is
required as the UV architecture cannot sustain a high rate of reads
to the MMR's on the UV HUB's to verify if the NMI should be claimed.
This not only slows down the system responsiveness, it can result in
a system lockup.
