A warning message during SRIOV multicast cleanup should have actually been
a debug level message. The condition generating the warning does no harm
and can fill the message log.
In some cases, during testing, some tests were so intense as to swamp the
message log with these warning messages, causing a stall in the console
message log output task. This stall caused an NMI to be sent to all CPUs
(so that they all dumped their stacks into the message log).
Aside from the message flood causing an NMI, the tests all passed.
Once the message flood which caused the NMI is removed (by reducing the
warning message to debug level), the NMI no longer occurs.
Sample message log (console log) output illustrating the flood and
resultant NMI (snippets with comments and modified with ... instead
of hex digits, to satisfy checkpatch.pl):

sending NMI to all CPUs:

README
Linux kernel ============ This file was moved to Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst Please notice that there are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or ``make pdfdocs``. There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory, several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation. See Documentation/00-INDEX for a list of what is contained in each file. 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.
