so we take a tracepoint while we enter an nmi

and this is always limited to one CPU at a time?

but more interestingly: trace_clock_local() -> sched_clock()
and of kernel/time/sched_clock.c we do raw_read_seqcount(&cd.seq) which
means we are busted if the NMI triggers during update_clock_read_data().
