Hmm, no, not yet, the stack-trace doesn't make much sense to me. The
sev_es_* function calls in the NMI path are for re-enabling NMI and
adjusting the #VC IST stack to allow nested VCs.

Alexey, can you try to get a more stable backtrace? For example by
building the kernel with frame pointers?

Regards,

	Joerg
