This patch fixes 2 edge cases in using kgdb in conjunction with gdb.
1) kgdb_deactivate_sw_breakpoints() should process the entire array of
breakpoints. The failure to do so results in breakpoints that you
cannot remove, because a break point can only be removed if its
state flag is set to BP_SET.
The easy way to duplicate this problem is to plant a break point in
a kernel module and then unload the kernel module.
2) kgdb_activate_sw_breakpoints() should process the entire array of
breakpoints. The failure to do so results in missed breakpoints
when a breakpoint cannot be activated.

On some architectures for the segv trap, gdb wants to pass the signal
back on continue. For kgdb this is not the default behavior, because
it can cause the kernel to crash if you arbitrarily pass back a
exception outside of kgdb.
Instead of causing instability, pass a message back to gdb about the
supported kgdb signal passing and execute a standard kgdb continue
operation.

The kgdb core should not assume that a single step operation of a
kernel thread will complete on the same CPU. The single step flag is
set at the "thread" level and it is possible in a multi cpu system
that a kernel thread can get scheduled on another cpu the next time it
is run.
As a further safety net in case a slave cpu is hung, the debug master
cpu will try 100 times before giving up and assuming control of the
slave cpus is no longer possible. It is more useful to be able to get
some information out of kgdb instead of spinning forever.

Roel Kluin reported an error found with Parfait. Where we want to
ensure that that kgdb_info[-1] never gets accessed.
Also check to ensure any negative tid does not exceed the size of the
shadow CPU array, else report critical debug context because it is an
internal kgdb failure.

When we define the common event fields in kprobe, we invert the error
handling and return immediately in case of success. Then we omit
to define specific kprobes fields (ip and nargs), and specific
kretprobes fields (func, ret_ip, nargs). And we only define them
when we fail to create common fields.
The most visible consequence is that we can't create filter for
k(ret)probes specific fields.
This patch re-invert the success/error handling to fix it.

Currently, when ptrace needs to modify a breakpoint, like disabling
it, changing its address, type or len, it calls
modify_user_hw_breakpoint(). This latter will perform the heavy and
racy task of unregistering the old breakpoint and registering a new
one.
This is racy as someone else might steal the reserved breakpoint
slot under us, which is undesired as the breakpoint is only
supposed to be modified, sometimes in the middle of a debugging
workflow. We don't want our slot to be stolen in the middle.
So instead of unregistering/registering the breakpoint, just
disable it while we modify its breakpoint fields and re-enable it
after if necessary.

Whatever the context nature of a breakpoint, we always perform the
following constraint checks before allocating it a slot:
- Check the number of pinned breakpoint bound the concerned cpus
- Check the max number of task-bound breakpoints that are belonging
to a task.
- Add both and see if we have a reamining slot for the new breakpoint
This is the right thing to do when we are about to register a cpu-only
bound breakpoint. But not if we are dealing with a task bound
breakpoint. What we want in this case is:
- Check the number of pinned breakpoint bound the concerned cpus
- Check the number of breakpoints that already belong to the task
in which the breakpoint to register is bound to.
- Add both
This fixes a regression that makes the "firefox -g" command fail to
register breakpoints once we deal with a secondary thread.

struct perf_event::event callback was called when a breakpoint
triggers. But this is a rather opaque callback, pretty
tied-only to the breakpoint API and not really integrated into perf
as it triggers even when we don't overflow.
We prefer to use overflow_handler() as it fits into the perf events
rules, being called only when we overflow.
