although, nmi_watchdog=1 works well when this crazy module loaded

may it be a hardware bug? or maybe a usual thing that the low-level
drivers can put the hardware to such a situation when NMI's are stopped
or the nmi_die message can't get out? (sorry for this newbie question
and thanks for your replies)


== nofuture.c:

#include <linux/init.h>
#include <linux/module.h>
#include <linux/kernel.h>

int deadlock_init(void)
{
local_irq_disable();
while ("I want to loop!")
;

return 0;
}

module_init(deadlock_init);
