You may want to verify that epc value is being loaded from C0_ErrorEPC 
rather than C0_EPC.  SDK-1.8.1 gets this wrong.

Look in watchgog.c:octeon_watchdog_nmi_stage3.

Once you have it printing the ErrorEPC value, the trace actually tells 
you what was happening when the NMI fired.

objdump -d vmlinux will give you a disassembly of the kernel, and away 
you go.
