+ help
+ Select the size of a per-CPU buffer where NMI messages are temporary
+ stored. They are copied to the main log buffer in a safe context
+ to avoid a deadlock. The value defines the size as a power of 2.
+
+ NMI messages are rare and limited. The largest one is when
+ a backtrace is printed. It usually fits into 4KB. Select
+ 8KB if you want to be on the safe side.
+
+ Examples:
+ 17 => 128 KB for each CPU
+ 16 => 64 KB for each CPU
+ 15 => 32 KB for each CPU
+ 14 => 16 KB for each CPU
+ 13 => 8 KB for each CPU
+ 12 => 4 KB for each CPU
