Hi
I have tested the above artful test kernel, which works fine. But developer mentioned the fixes really needs in 4.15 bionic kernel(where it has support to send NMI IPI's which causes this bug - r13 clobber bug). In 4.13 kernel there is no support for that, hence those fixes will not have any impact.

Thanks
