+ * The interrupt architecture has a quirk in that the HV interrupts excluding
+ * the NMIs (0x100 and 0x200) do not clear MSR[RI] at entry. The first thing
+ * that an interrupt handler must do is save off a GPR into a scratch register,
+ * and all interrupts on POWERNV (HV=1) use the HSPRG1 register as scratch.
+ * Therefore an NMI can clobber an HV interrupt's live HSPRG1 without noticing
+ * that it is non-reentrant, which leads to random data corruption.
+ *
+ * The solution is for NMI interrupts in HV mode to check if they originated
+ * from these critical HV interrupt regions. If so, then mark them not
+ * recoverable.
+ *
+ * An alternative would be for HV NMIs to use SPRG for scratch to avoid the
+ * HSPRG1 clobber, however this would cause guest SPRG to be clobbered. Linux
+ * guests should always have MSR[RI]=0 when its scratch SPRG is in use, so
+ * that would work. However any other guest OS that may have the SPRG live
+ * and MSR[RI]=1 could encounter silent corruption.
+ *
+ * Builds that do not support KVM could take this second option to increase
