The reason I implemented nmi_panic() as a macro is to pass
variable arguments directly to panic().  Fortunately, since all
invocations of nmi_panic() just pass a fixed string, I can change it
to a normal function like:

int nmi_panic(struct pt_regs *regs, const char *msg)
{
...
	panic("%s", msg);

If people don't mind if that, I'll change it.
