Ok, I think I found it. In check_nmi_watchdog():
for (cpu = 0; cpu < NR_CPUS; cpu++)
prev_nmi_count[cpu] = cpu_pda(cpu)->__nmi_count;
As I mentioned it works fine on both of my systems so could you try it out?
Thanks!
Mike

* Change function check_nmi_watchdog() to use nr_cpu_ids instead of NR_CPUS.
