x86/fred: Add a NMI entry stub for FRED

On a FRED system, NMIs nest both with themselves and faults, transient
information is saved into the stack frame, and NMI unblocking only
happens when the stack frame indicates that so should happen.

Thus, the NMI entry stub for FRED is really quite small...
