Afaict that just reduces the window.

Isn't the problem that:

arch/powerpc/kernel/exceptions-64e.S

	START_EXCEPTION(perfmon);
	NORMAL_EXCEPTION_PROLOG(0x260, BOOKE_INTERRUPT_PERFORMANCE_MONITOR,
				PROLOG_ADDITION_NONE)
	EXCEPTION_COMMON(0x260)
	INTS_DISABLE
#	  RECONCILE_IRQ_STATE
#	    TRACE_DISABLE_INTS
#	      TRACE_WITH_FRAME_BUFFER(trace_hardirqs_off)
#
# but we haven't done nmi_enter() yet... whoopsy

	CHECK_NAPPING()
	addi	r3,r1,STACK_FRAME_OVERHEAD
	bl	performance_monitor_exception
#	 perf_irq()
#          perf_event_interrupt
#	     __perf_event_interrupt
#	      nmi_enter()



That is, afaict your entry code is buggered.
