Yes, except it looks like it can benefit from a real machine_emergency_restart, if the smp_send_stop in there is the one I am familiar with. My apologies I am always finding the subarchitecture support on x86 non-intuitive. When you are looking at the primary code path there is nothing to indicate that there is a secondary code path out in the machine specific files. Most other architectures have a machine vector so you can compile for multiple subarchitectures simultaneously and then switch between them, at run time. With an optimization that if you only compile for one subarchitecture the indirect function call overhead disappears. Anyway I will see about generating the trivial patch later today.
