I'd rather not change it in this patch since it's a pre-existing and
separate issue, but I can add a patch to the end of the series for
that if I end up spinning it. Otherwise I can send a follow-up patch
for it.

Nope. See the part of the commit message that says:

This patch depends on commit 36759e343ff9 ("nmi_backtrace: allow
excluding an arbitrary CPU") since that commit changed the prototype
of arch_trigger_cpumask_backtrace(), which this patch implements.

I won't plan on doing an immediate spin for this and for now I'll wait
for additional feedback. If a maintainer is getting ready to land
this, I'm happy to post a new version with this fix or also happy if a
maintainer wants to add the "()" while applying.
