This breaks out the ptrace handling from get_signal_to_deliver into a
new subroutine. The actual code there doesn't change, and it gets
inlined into nearly identical compiled code. This makes the function
substantially shorter and thus easier to read, and it nicely isolates
the ptrace magic.

Fixing recursive fault but reboot is needed!
After digging into the code and debugging, I finlly found out a race
situation:
do_exit()
->cgroup_exit()
->if (!list_empty(&tsk->cg_list))
list_del(&tsk->cg_list);
cgroup_iter_start()
->cgroup_enable_task_cg_list()
->list_add(&tsk->cg_list, ..);
In this case the list won't be deleted though the process has exited.
We got two bug reports in the past, which seem to be the same bug as
this one:
http://lkml.org/lkml/2008/3/5/332http://lkml.org/lkml/2007/10/17/224
Actually sometimes I got oops on list_del, sometimes oops on list_add.
And I can change my test program a bit to trigger other oops.
The patch has been tested both on x86_32 and x86_64.

Fix the problem of protecting the kgdb handle_exception exit
which had an NMI race condition, while trying to restore
normal system operation.
There was a small window after the master processor sets cpu_in_debug
to zero but before it has set kgdb_active to zero where a
non-master processor in an SMP system could receive an NMI and
re-enter the kgdb_wait() loop.
As long as the master processor sets the cpu_in_debug before sending
the cpu roundup the cpu_in_debug variable can also be used to guard
against the race condition.
The kgdb_wait() function no longer needs to check
kgdb_active because it is done in the arch specific code
and handled along with the nmi traps at the low level.
This also allows kgdb_wait() to exit correctly if it was
entered for some unknown reason due to a spurious NMI that
could not be handled by the arch specific code.

kgdb core fixes:
- Check to see that mm->mmap_cache is not null before calling
flush_cache_range(), else on arch=ARM it will cause a fatal
fault.
- Breakpoints should only be restored if they are in the BP_ACTIVE
state.
- Fix a typo in comments to "kgdb_register_io_module"
x86 kgdb fixes:
- Fix the x86 arch handler such that on a kill or detach that the
appropriate cleanup on the single stepping flags gets run.
- Add in the DIE_NMIWATCHDOG call for x86_64
- Touch the nmi watchdog before returning the system to normal
operation after performing any kind of kgdb operation, else
the possibility exists to trigger the watchdog.

Fix two regressions dealing with the kgdb core.
1) kgdb_skipexception and kgdb_post_primary_code are optional
functions that are only required on archs that need special exception
fixups.
2) The kernel address space scope must be set on any probe_kernel_*
function or archs such as ARCH=arm will not allow access to the kernel
memory space. As an example, it is required to allow the full kernel
address space is when you the kernel debugger to inspect a system
call.

Add HW breakpoints into the arch specific portion of x86 kgdb. In the
current x86 kernel.org kernels HW breakpoints are changed out in lazy
fashion because there is no infrastructure around changing them when
changing to a kernel task or entering the kernel mode via a system
call. This lazy approach means that if a user process uses HW
breakpoints the kgdb will loose out. This is an acceptable trade off
because the developer debugging the kernel is assumed to know what is
going on system wide and would be aware of this trade off.
There is a minor bug fix to the kgdb core so as to correctly call the
hw breakpoint functions with a valid value from the enum.
There is also a minor change to the x86_64 startup code when using
early HW breakpoints. When the debugger is connected, the cpu startup
code must not zero out the HW breakpoint registers or you cannot hit
the breakpoints you are interested in, in the first place.

ACPI currently emulates a timeout for semaphores with calls to
down_trylock and sleep. This produces horrible behaviour in terms of
