The code is inaccessible to backtrace implementations for other architectures, which is a shame because they would probably like to be safe too. Copy this code into printk. We'll port the x86 NMI backtrace to it in a later patch. Incidentally, technically I think it might be safe to call printk_nmi_prepare() from NMI, providing care were taken to honour the return code. printk_nmi_complete() cannot be called from NMI but could be scheduled using irq_work_queue(). However honouring the return code means sometimes it is impossible to get the message out so in most cases I'd say using this code in such a way should probably attract sympathy and/or derision rather than admiration.
