x86/nmi/64: Reorder nested NMI checks

commit a27507ca upstream.

Check the repeat_nmi .. end_repeat_nmi special case first.  The
next patch will rework the RSP check and, as a side effect, the
RSP check will no longer detect repeat_nmi .. end_repeat_nmi, so
we'll need this ordering of the checks.

Note: this is more subtle than it appears.  The check for
repeat_nmi .. end_repeat_nmi jumps straight out of the NMI code
instead of adjusting the "iret" frame to force a repeat.  This
is necessary, because the code between repeat_nmi and
end_repeat_nmi sets "NMI executing" and then writes to the
"iret" frame itself.  If a nested NMI comes in and modifies the
"iret" frame while repeat_nmi is also modifying it, we'll end up
with garbage.  The old code got this right, as does the new
code, but the new code is a bit more explicit.

If we were to move the check right after the "NMI executing"
check, then we'd get it wrong and have random crashes.

( Because the "NMI executing" check would jump to the code that would
  modify the "iret" frame without checking if the interrupted NMI was
  currently modifying it. )
