[PATCH 1/3] x86: Only call smp_processor_id in non-preempt cases

[Don Zickus]

There are some paths that walk the die_chain with preemption on.
Make sure we are in an NMI call before we start doing anything.

This was triggered by do_general_protection calling notify_die with
DIE_GPF.

[PATCH 2/3] x86: Avoid calling arch_trigger_all_cpu_backtrace() at the same time

[Don Zickus]

From: Dongdong Deng <dongdong.deng@windriver.com>

The spin_lock_debug/rcu_cpu_stall detector uses
trigger_all_cpu_backtrace() to dump cpu backtrace.
Therefore it is possible that trigger_all_cpu_backtrace()
could be called at the same time on different CPUs, which
triggers and 'unknown reason NMI' warning. The following case
illustrates the problem:

      CPU1                    CPU2                     ...   CPU N
                       trigger_all_cpu_backtrace()
                       set "backtrace_mask" to cpu mask
                               |
generate NMI interrupts  generate NMI interrupts       ...
    \                          |                               /
     \                         |                              /

The "backtrace_mask" will be cleaned by the first NMI interrupt
at nmi_watchdog_tick(), then the following NMI interrupts generated
by other cpus's arch_trigger_all_cpu_backtrace() will be taken as
unknown reason NMI interrupts.

This patch uses a test_and_set to avoid the problem, and stop the
arch_trigger_all_cpu_backtrace() from calling to avoid dumping a
double cpu backtrace info when there is already a
trigger_all_cpu_backtrace() in progress.
