kgdb: Add the ability to schedule a breakpoint via a tasklet
Some kgdb I/O modules require the ability to create a breakpoint tasklet, such as kgdboc and external modules such as kgdboe. The breakpoint tasklet is used as an asynchronous entry point into the debugger which will have a different function scope than the current execution path where it might not be safe to have an inline breakpoint. This is true of some of the kgdb I/O drivers which share code with kgdb and rest of the kernel users. Signed-off-by: Jason Wessel <jason.wessel@windriver.com>
