FWIW I'm waiting for the patch in:

http://marc.info/?l=linux-kernel&m=123391426917099&w=2

to settle and make it's way into the tree as that bug has been
crashing my machines for a while. It's definitely something
needed for -stable as well.

1) Don't try to use the NMI watchdog on cpus where we know it won't work.
These chips lack the performance counter overflow interrupt which is
essential to this scheme.

2) We have a million exception fixup stubs generated which are all
essentially the same, so have one stub for each case and point the
exception table entries to them.

3) Fix probe_kernel_{read,write}() on sparc64, based upon reports and patches
from Chris Torek.

Please pull, thanks a lot.
