Subject: [PATCH V2 18/41] x86/entry: Call paranoid_exit() in asm_exc_nmi()

From: Lai Jiangshan <laijs@...ux.alibaba.com>

The code between "call exc_nmi" and nmi_restore is as the same as
paranoid_exit(), so we can just use paranoid_exit() instead of the open
duplicated code.

No functional change intended.
