Use a dedicated entry for invoking the NMI handler from KVM VMX's VM-Exit path for 32-bit even though using a dedicated entry for 32-bit isn't strictly necessary. Exposing a single symbol will allow KVM to reference the entry point in assembly code without having to resort to more #ifdefs (or #defines). identry.h is intended to be included from asm files only once, and so simply including idtentry.h in KVM assembly isn't an option. Bypassing the ESP fixup and CR3 switching in the standard NMI entry code is safe as KVM always handles NMIs that occur in the guest on a kernel stack, with a kernel CR3.

Linux kernel
============
There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can
be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read
Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first.
In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``. The formatted documentation can also be read online at:
https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/
There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation.
Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the
requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about
the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
