Or are you saying an NMI in an idle system will have the same %rip thus
falsely detecting a back-to-back NMI?
That's easy to avoid - insert an instruction zeroing the last nmi_rip
somewhere before or after hlt. It's always okay to execute such an
instruction (outside the nmi handler itself), since nmi_rip is meant to
detect a "no instructions executed" condition.

I have a truly marvellous patch that fixes the bug which this
signature is too narrow to contain.
