Much of the code sitting in arch/x86/kernel/apic/hw_nmi.c to support safe
all-cpu backtracing from NMI has been copied to printk.c to make it
accessible to other architectures.

Port the x86 NMI backtrace to the generic code.

Not sure what the others think, but I hate this polish notation for
compares. One does not say "if zero does not equal
printk_nmi_backtrace_prepare()", they say "if
printk_nmi_backtrace_prepare() does not return zero".

And the reason for polish notation is to prevent the:

	if (x = 0)

mistake. Which gcc warns about anyway. Also, this doesn't even pertain
to this code because:

	if (printk_nmi_backtrace_prepare() = 0)

would fail to compile.

I would simply say:

	err = printk_nmi_backtrace_prepare();
	if (err)

like sane kernel code does.

Besides, there's not a lot of such comparisons in the kernel anyway:

$ git grep -E "if\s+\(+[0-9]+\!?=.*"
drivers/ide/au1xxx-ide.c:246:                   if (1==i)

but my regex doesn't cover all possible variants, just the single-line
ones.

Yes, that is even the better solution.

Ok. I'll do this.

The constant on the left habit is so ingrained for me I often don't 
notice it. I agree with Steven that modern compiler warnings render it 
an obsolete habit...


Thanks.


Daniel.
