While discussing races in the NMI handler's trailer fiddling with RTC registers, I've discovered we incorrectly attempt to handle NMIs coming from the system (memory errors, IOCHK# assertions, etc.) with all processors even though the interrupts are only routed to the bootstrap processor. If one of these events coincides with a NMI watchdog tick it may even be handled multiple times in parallel. Here is a fix that makes application processors ignore these events. They no longer access the NMI status bits at I/O port 0x61 which has also the advantage of removing the contention on the port when the I/O APIC NMI watchdog makes all processors arrive at the handler at the same time.
