From my understanding, Linux's hardlockup detector already uses the ARM
PMU interrupt to check whether some task is stuck. I haven't looked at
the details of the implementation yet, but in theory having the PMU
interrupt as NMI should make the hard lockup detector use the NMI.
When I do the v3, I'll have a look at this to check whether the
hardlockup detector works fine when using NMI.
