Subject: [BUG] NMI watchdog lockups caused by mwait_idle

Hi Venkatesh,

I have an IBM IntelliStation Z30 with two Dempsey CPUs.  When I try to
boot 2.6.20-rc4 on it, the system prints messages about NMI watchdog
lockups.  git-bisect determined that the patch "[PATCH] x86-64: Fix
interrupt race in idle callback (3rd try)" was the source of these
problems, and I can work around the problem either by passing
"idle=poll" to get avoid mwait_idle or by reverting the patch.

Other non-Dempsey Xeon machines with mwait support do not exhibit these
symptoms.  I will try to determine if this is a bug specific to Dempsey
CPUs or this particular type of machine.  I suspect the latter, but I
don't know enough about monitor/mwait to pursue this much further.

What else can I do to diagnose this?
