No Joshua, exactly 'nmi_watchdog=1' since it's important to
find who is responsible that cpu is stuck while testing nmi
watchdog. 'debug and apic=debug' will show additional info
what is happening. And it would be just great if you able
to try latest -tip/master

	http://people.redhat.com/mingo/tip.git/README

since there a lot of work/fix are done. If it's a problem
to fetch this kernel thru git - me or Ingo (I suppose)
could make tar.bz2 archive so you'll not need to fetch
the whole history. I wouldn't say I'm really specialist
in this area so your report could be quite important
not for me only but for others too.
