NMI lockup in fib_sync_down

[Phil Oester <kernel@linuxace.com>]

[Tried a couple of times to send this to netdev@oss.sgi.com, but
 never seems to show up]

Trying to update from 2.6.10 to 2.6.11 on a gateway, and keep
getting an NMI lockup:

console shuts up ...

Disassembly of fib_sync_down shows it is actually locking in the
inlined prefetch function (offsets do not match the registers
shown in the panic as I rebuilt vmlinux with debugging enabled)

                unsigned int hash = fib_laddr_hashfn(local);
                struct hlist_head *head = &fib_info_laddrhash[hash];
                struct hlist_node *node;
                struct fib_info *fi;

                hlist_for_each_entry(fi, node, head, fib_lhash) {
c026a82e:       8b 0c 96                mov    (%esi,%edx,4),%ecx
c026a831:       85 c9                   test   %ecx,%ecx

c026a839:       8d bc 27 00 00 00 00    lea    0x0(%edi),%edi
   However we don't do prefetches for pre XP Athlons currently
   That should be fixed. */

Reverting to 2.6.10 makes the problem go away.  Ideas?
