Are you sure nmi_core is always between 0-3 on a 4-core system and 0-5
on a 6-core system?
In other words, is that what topology_core_id(raw_smp_processor_id()) returns?

Note that, unfortunately, I have not seen documentation that says on
6-core system
UNC_GLOBAL_CTRL has 6 interrupt target bits, but it would make sense.


Otherwise, you will get a kernel panic when you wrmsr UNC_GLOBAL_CTRL.
