Jason Wessel 5352ae638e perf, hw_breakpoint, kgdb: Do not take mutex for kernel debugger
This patch fixes the regression in functionality where the
kernel debugger and the perf API do not nicely share hw
breakpoint reservations.

The kernel debugger cannot use any mutex_lock() calls because it
can start the kernel running from an invalid context.

A mutex free version of the reservation API needed to get
created for the kernel debugger to safely update hw breakpoint
reservations.

The possibility for a breakpoint reservation to be concurrently
processed at the time that kgdb interrupts the system is
improbable. Should this corner case occur the end user is
warned, and the kernel debugger will prohibit updating the
hardware breakpoint reservations.

Any time the kernel debugger reserves a hardware breakpoint it
will be a system wide reservation.
