Hmm, I can't get the config to match up properly when I run 'make
oldconfig', even though I am using the HEAD of perf/nmi.  I took the
defaults anyway and used 'ARCH=i386 make all' but couldn't reproduce your
build failure.

Looking through the code, is there ever case where 'apic' is undefined?
The arch_trigger_all_cpu_backtrace should match identically to the old nmi
code, so I am stuck on how to fix this.

Thoughts?

Cheers,
Don
