    x86: defer processing events on the NMI exit path
    
    Otherwise, we may end up in the scheduler, keeping NMIs masked for a
    possibly unbounded period of time (until whenever the next IRET gets
    executed). Enforce timely event processing by sending a self IPI.
    
    Of course it's open for discussion whether to always use the straight
    exit path from handle_ist_exception.
