[PATCH] kgdb: Avoid suspicious RCU usage warning

[Douglas Anderson]

At times when I'm using kgdb I see a splat on my console about
suspicious RCU usage.  I managed to come up with a case that could
reproduce this that looked like this:

  WARNING: suspicious RCU usage
  5.7.0-rc4+ #609 Not tainted
  -----------------------------
  kernel/pid.c:395 find_task_by_pid_ns() needs rcu_read_lock() protection!

  other info that might help us debug this:

    rcu_scheduler_active = 2, debug_locks = 1
  3 locks held by swapper/0/1:
   #0: ffffff81b6b8e988 (&dev->mutex){....}-{3:3}, at: __device_attach+0x40/0x13c
   #1: ffffffd01109e9e8 (dbg_master_lock){....}-{2:2}, at: kgdb_cpu_enter+0x20c/0x7ac
   #2: ffffffd01109ea90 (dbg_slave_lock){....}-{2:2}, at: kgdb_cpu_enter+0x3ec/0x7ac

If I understand properly we should just be able to blanket kgdb under
one big RCU read lock and the problem should go away.  We'll add it to
the beast-of-a-function known as kgdb_cpu_enter().

With this I no longer get any splats and things seem to work fine.
