Subject: [PATCH v6 2/6] panic: flatten nmi_panic control flow
Date: Tue, 18 Aug 2026 16:38:02 +0000	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <20260818163806.17460-3-include@grrlz.net> (raw)
In-Reply-To: <20260818163806.17460-1-include@grrlz.net>

panic() is __noreturn, so the else after panic_try_start() is dead.
Drop it so the force_cpu path can be added cleanly on top.
