Subject: [PATCH v2] x86/nmi: Fix nmi_handle duration miscalculation

In nmi_check_duration(), the 'whole_msecs' value get from 'action->max_duration' is wrong.

Fixes: 248ed51048c4 ("x86/nmi: Remove irq_work from the long duration NMI handler")

v2:
Change solution as peterz@xxxxxxxxxxxxx suggested.
