Subject: perf, x86: Handle in flight NMIs on P4 platform
X-Git-Url: http://git.maquefel.me/?a=commitdiff_plain;h=03e22198d2379ffa746c9ea332fbb1f094f9423b;p=linux.git

perf, x86: Handle in flight NMIs on P4 platform

Stephane reported we've forgot to guard the P4 platform
against spurious in-flight performance IRQs. Fix it.

This fixes potential spurious 'dazed and confused' NMI
messages.
