Move NMI nesting tracking from the preempt_count bits to a separate per-CPU counter (nmi_nesting). This is to free up the NMI bits in the preempt_count, allowing those bits to be repurposed for other uses. Reduce NMI_BITS from 4 to 1, using it only to detect if we're in an NMI. The per-CPU counter currently caps nesting at 15.
