unwind_user/deferred: Make unwind deferral requests NMI-safe
Make unwind_deferred_request() NMI-safe so tracers in NMI context can call it and safely request a user space stacktrace when the task exits. Note, this is only allowed for architectures that implement a safe cmpxchg. If an architecture requests a deferred stack trace from NMI context that does not support a safe NMI cmpxchg, it will get an -EINVAL and trigger a warning. For those architectures, they would need another method (perhaps an irqwork), to request a deferred user space stack trace. That can be dealt with later if one of theses architectures require this feature.
