The watchdog soft-NMI exception stack setup loads a stack pointer
twice, which is an obvious error. It ends up using the system reset
interrupt (true-NMI) stack, which is also a bug because the watchdog
could be preempted by a system reset interrupt that overwrites the
NMI stack.
Change the soft-NMI to use the "emergency stack". The current kernel
stack is not used, because of the longer-term goal to prevent
asynchronous stack access using soft-disable.

Linux kernel ============ This file was moved to Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst Please notice that there are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or ``make pdfdocs``. There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory, several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation. See Documentation/00-INDEX for a list of what is contained in each file. Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
