| Ingo,
| 
|  This is a series of patches in response to your earlier report to fix the
| problem where the I/O APIC NMI watchdog is attempted where it should not
| be, fails and then disables the timer leading the system to a fatal
| failure.  Please put in tip/x86/apic, replacing the patch named
| nosmp-watchdog or 'x86: APIC/SMP: Downgrade the NMI watchdog for "nosmp"'
| in the sequence.
| 
|   Maciej

I've tested it over tip/x86/apic and it solved problems for me.
Thanks Maciej!
