[SeaBIOS] [PATCH] qemu-kvm: fix improper nmi emulation (was: Re: [Qemu-devel] [PATCH] qemu: Fix inject-nmi)

From: Kenji Kaneshige <kaneshige.kenji at jp.fujitsu.com>

Currently, NMI interrupt is blindly sent to all the vCPUs when NMI
button event happens. This doesn't properly emulate real hardware on
which NMI button event triggers LINT1. Because of this, NMI is sent to
the processor even when LINT1 is maskied in LVT. For example, this
causes the problem that kdump initiated by NMI sometimes doesn't work
on KVM, because kdump assumes NMI is masked on CPUs other than CPU0.

With this patch, inject-nmi request is handled as follows.

- When in-kernel irqchip is disabled, inject LINT1 instead of NMI
  interrupt.
- When in-kernel irqchip is enabled, send nmi event to kernel as the
  current code does. LINT1 should be emulated in kernel.
