>From the version 1 cover letter:

  This patch series modifies the trigger_xxx_backtrace() NMI-based
  remote backtracing code to make it more flexible, and makes a few
  small improvements along the way.

  The motivation comes from the task isolation code, where there are
  scenarios where we want to be able to diagnose a case where some cpu
  is about to interrupt a task-isolated cpu.  It can be helpful to
  see both where the interrupting cpu is, and also an approximation
  of where the cpu that is being interrupted is.  The nmi_backtrace
  framework allows us to discover the stack of the interrupted cpu.

I've tested that the change works as desired on tile, and build-tested
x86, arm64, and arm.  For x86 and arm64 I confirmed that the generic
cpuidle stuff as well as the architecture-specific routines are in the
new cpuidle section.  For arm I just build-tested it and made sure the
generic cpuidle routines were in the new cpuidle section, but I didn't
attempt to tease apart the tangle of platform-specific idle routines
that arm has and tag them with __cpuidle.  That might be more usefully
done by someone with arm platform experience in a follow-up patch.

I have also pushed it up to kernel.org to pull if that's easier:

git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/cmetcalf/linux-tile.git nmi-backtrace

The change conflicts with Petr Mladek's NMI printk cleanup patches:

He has kindly offered to resolve the conflicts.

v4: Added some more __cpuidle functions (PeterZ, Rafael Wysocki)
    Rebased to kernel v4.6-rc1

v3: Various improvements to the set of __cpuidle functions;
    Add back in a missing section accidentally removed in modpost.c (PeterZ)
    https://lkml.kernel.org/r/1458667179-19630-1-git-send-email-cmetcalf@mellanox.com

v2: Switch to using __cpuidle tagging, switch S-O-B to Mellanox

Chris Metcalf (4):
  nmi_backtrace: add more trigger_*_cpu_backtrace() methods
  nmi_backtrace: do a local dump_stack() instead of a self-NMI
  arch/tile: adopt the new nmi_backtrace framework
  nmi_backtrace: generate one-line reports for idle cpus
