nmi_watchdog is compiled by default on x86_64 archs with SMP (this
servers is a quad core processor and the kernel was compiled with SMP
enabled - I read this in nmi_watchdog.txt in kernel/Documentation), so,
it´s only necessary to enable it in grub, as I did:

Just to clarify: Even after doing this, when I tried to modprobe ath_pci
the server hangs exactly as before and even after waiting for almost 2
minutes for the nmi_watchdog/oops come in place, the servers keep freezed.
