+ * For i386, NMIs use the same stack as the kernel, and we can
+ * add a workaround to the iret problem in C. Simply have 3 states
+ * the NMI can be in.
+ *
+ *  1) not running
+ *  2) executing
+ *  3) latched
+ *
+ * When no NMI is in progress, it is in the "not running" state.
+ * When an NMI comes in, it goes into the "executing" state.
+ * Normally, if another NMI is triggered, it does not interrupt
+ * the running NMI and the HW will simply latch it so that when
+ * the first NMI finishes, it will restart the second NMI.
+ * (Note, the latch is binary, thus multiple NMIs triggering,
+ *  when one is running, are ignored. Only one NMI is restarted.)
+ *
+ * If an NMI hits a breakpoint that executes an iret, another
+ * NMI can preempt it. We do not want to allow this new NMI
+ * to run, but we want to execute it when the first one finishes.
+ * We set the state to "latched", and the first NMI will perform
+ * an cmpxchg on the state, and if it doesn't successfully
+ * reset the state to "not running" it will restart the next
+ * NMI.

+ * In x86_64 things are a bit more difficult. This has the same problem

+ * difficult is that both NMIs and breakpoints have their own stack.
+ * When a new NMI or breakpoint is executed, the stack is set to a fixed
+ * point. If an NMI is nested, it will have its stack set at that same
+ * fixed address that the first NMI had, and will start corrupting the
+ * stack. This is handled in entry_64.S, but the same problem exists with
+ * the breakpoint stack.
+ *
+ * If a breakpoint is being processed, and the debug stack is being used,
+ * if an NMI comes in and also hits a breakpoint, the stack pointer
+ * will be set to the same fixed address as the breakpoint that was
+ * interrupted, causing that stack to be corrupted. To handle this case,
+ * check if the stack that was interrupted is the debug stack, and if
+ * so, change the IDT so that new breakpoints will use the current stack
+ * and not switch to the fixed address. On return of the NMI, switch back
