| Btw, if someone is still watching this thread - I've found a bit strange
| behaviour of nmi on 32bit platform. Look, we have 
| 
| 	nmi_watchdog = NMI_DEFAULT
| 
| by default which is the alias to NMI_DISABLED. Then lets assume that
| user put some option on command line, say for example he passes something
| like that
| 
| 	nmi_watchdog=2
| 
| which set it to
| 
| 	nmi_watchdog = NMI_LOCAL_APIC
| 
| with only that option passed we have sysfs entry created
| but I can't figure out why in proc_nmi_enabled() we have this
| code
| 
| 	if (nmi_watchdog == NMI_DEFAULT) {
| 		if (lapic_watchdog_ok())
| 			nmi_watchdog = NMI_LOCAL_APIC;
| 		else
| 			nmi_watchdog = NMI_IO_APIC;
| 	}
| 
| it seems it just _dont need_ at and could be safetly removed.
| Did I miss something?
