I checked the patch and our code again: NMI watchdog masking is managed
via arch.vapics_in_nmi_mode and by re-checking the per-APIC mask
situation in kvm_apic_local_deliver when delivering the NMI.

So the patch looks correct - NMIs aren't acked like timer IRQs, the
current logic is definitely wrong.

Can you elaborate? Why aren't NMIs acked (if delivered via the PIC)? Is the PIC programmed into auto-EOI mode or something?
