In commit bc09c21 "Fix finding overflowed PMC in interrupt" we added
a printk() to the PMU exception handler. Unfortunately that is not safe.
The problem is that the PMU exception may run even when interrupts are
soft disabled, aka NMI context. We do this so that we can profile parts
of the kernel that have interrupts soft-disabled.
But by calling printk() from the exception handler, we can potentially
deadlock in the printk code on logbuf_lock, eg:

Fix it by making sure we only call printk() when we are not in NMI
context.
