x86: avoid deadlock after a PCI SERR NMI

If a PCI System Error (SERR) is asserted it causes an NMI. If this NMI
occurs while the CPU is in printk() then Xen may deadlock as
pci_serr_error() calls console_force_unlock() which screws up the
console lock.

printk() isn't safe to call from NMI context so defer the diagnostic
message to a softirq.
