    Hi Ingo,

    while there is a conversation about makeing NMI handler robust/modern or
    whatever, I think the naming Huang has implemented for NMI Stat&Ctrl
    registers/ports look quite good and convenient (I thought about this times
    ago when being merging nmi-32/64 code but didn't implemented it properly).
    So I presume perhaps we could merge this snippets first? Or I miss something
    on discussion in general?
