x86/nmi: Make register_nmi_handler() more robust

register_nmi_handler() has no sanity check whether a handler has been
registered already. Such an unintended double-add leads to list corruption
and hard to diagnose problems during the next NMI handling.

Init the list head in the static NMI action struct and check it for being
empty in register_nmi_handler().
