Well, none of this is obvious :/

The basic idea was that the LSB signifies 'pending/in-progress' and when
that is set, nobody else touches no nothing. Enter will unconditionally
(re) write_sysreg(), exit will nothing.

Obviously I messed that up.

How's this? 

#define arch_nmi_enter()						\
do {									\
	struct nmi_ctx *___ctx;						\
	unsigned int ___cnt;						\
									\
	if (!is_kernel_in_hyp_mode() || in_nmi())			\
		break;							\
									\
	___ctx = this_cpu_ptr(&nmi_contexts);				\
	___cnt = ___ctx->cnt;						\
	if (!(___cnt & 1)) { /* !IN-PROGRESS */				\
		if (___cnt) {						\
			___ctx->cnt += 2;				\
			break;						\
		}							\
									\
		___ctx->hcr = read_sysreg(hcr_el2);			\
		barrier();						\
		___ctx->cnt |= 1; /* IN-PROGRESS */			\
		barrier();						\
	}								\
									\
	if (!(___ctx->hcr & HCR_TGE)) {					\
		write_sysreg(___ctx->hcr | HCR_TGE, hcr_el2);		\
		isb();							\
	}								\
	barrier();							\
	if (!(___cnt & 1))						\
		___ctx->cnt++; /* COMPLETE */				\
} while (0)

#define arch_nmi_exit()							\
do {									\
	struct nmi_ctx *___ctx;						\
									\
	if (!is_kernel_in_hyp_mode() || in_nmi())			\
		break;							\
									\
	___ctx = this_cpu_ptr(&nmi_contexts);				\
	if ((___ctx->cnt & 1) || (___ctx->cnt -= 2))			\
		break;							\
									\
	if (!(___ctx->hcr & HCR_TGE))					\
		write_sysreg(___ctx->hcr, hcr_el2);			\
} while (0)
