You shouldn't be calling lockdep from NMI context! That is, I recently
added suport for that on x86:

https://lkml.kernel.org/r/20200623083721.155449112@infradead.org
https://lkml.kernel.org/r/20200623083721.216740948@infradead.org

But you need to be very careful on how you order things, as you can see
the above relies on preempt_count() already having been incremented with
NMI_MASK.
