    [PATCH] allow drivers to claim the lapic NMI watchdog HW · 93dbf6d6

    Here is an updated lapic NMI ownership tracking patch which
    should address the issues that were raised with the first one:
    
    - Simplified the API function names to {reserve,release}_lapic_nmi().
    
    - Rewrote the ownership tracking code to use two individually named
      flags instead of using arithmetic and the sign. The code is now
      simple enough that no "hiding" macros are needed. (Thanks Albert
      for that suggestion.)
