I submitted the patch only because I found that the nmi_callback
functions were being exported in all kernels except the Xen x86_64 one.
I did not realize that they are going away. We are using the functions
in one of our internal modules and I will look into moving away from
using them.

I am a little confused here. If that's the case, then why are the
nmi_callback symbols being exported in all kernels but the Xen x86_64
one? I see that it is also being exported in the SLES9 SP2 kernel.
