It has long been the case that the architecture must call nmi_enter()

to free up the handler's data as soon as synchronize_sched() returns.
Important note: for this to work, the architecture in question must
-invoke irq_enter() and irq_exit() on NMI entry and exit, respectively.
+invoke nmi_enter() and nmi_exit() on NMI entry and exit, respectively.
