[PATCH] [kgdb] Switch master cpu after gdb thread command for SMP(v4)

[sonic zhang]

Hi Jason,

This is the updated kgdb SMP patch, which is tested on blackfin bf561 dual core
system. A new bug is fixed, which causes debugging halt in SMP kernel if a
breakpoint is hit and cpu is switched in gdb before continue running kernel.

   In blackfin SMP architecture, different core has its own L1 SRAM and MMR
   memory, which code running on the other core can't access. In current kgdb
   impelemntation, cpus are represented by thread with minus prefix.

If user run thread command in gdb to switch to the thread of the other cpu,
kgdb should:
1. send IPI signal to master cpu
2. release the specific passive cpu waiting in IPI handler
3. exit kgdb exception loop on master cpu and trap into kgdb wait in IPI handler
4. trap the released passive cpu into kgdb exception in IPI handler
