+	  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
