[patch 6/8] Cleanup NMI interrupt path

From: dzickus
Date: Tue May 09 2006 - 16:57:30 EST



This patch cleans up the NMI interrupt path. Instead of being gated by if
the 'nmi callback' is set, the interrupt handler now calls everyone who is
registered on the die_chain and additionally checks the nmi watchdog,
reseting it if enabled. This allows more subsystems to hook into the NMI if
they need to (without being block by set_nmi_callback).
