I was able to reproduce it easily by zapping the mmu every second.

Attached is a patch the fixes it for me.  Basically it avoids the nmi 
path if an interrupt is being injected.  This is closer to my event 
queue plan, and also is similar to what the code does today with 
exceptions (avoid ->inject_pending_irq() if an exception is pending).

Please review (and test if possible).
