The TWA_NMI_CURRENT handling very much depends on IRQ_WORK, but that
isn't universally enabled everywhere.
Maybe the IRQ_WORK infrastructure should just be unconditional - x86
ends up indirectly enabling it through unconditionally enabling
PERF_EVENTS, for example. But it also gets enabled by having SMP
support, or even if you just have PRINTK enabled.
But in the meantime TWA_NMI_CURRENT causes tons of build failures on
various odd minimal configs. Which did show up in linux-next, but
despite that nobody bothered to fix it or even inform me until -rc1 was
out.
Fixes: 466e4d801c ("task_work: Add TWA_NMI_CURRENT as an additional notify mode")

Linux kernel
============
There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can
be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read
Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first.
In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``. The formatted documentation can also be read online at:
https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/
There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the reStructuredText markup notation.
Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the
requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about
the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
