Linus Torvalds 6116dea80d kgdb patches for 5.8-rc3
The main change here is a fix for a number of unsafe interactions
 between kdb and the console system. The fixes are specific to kdb (pure
 kgdb debugging does not use the console system at all). On systems with
 an NMI then kdb, if it is enabled, must get messages to the user despite
 potentially running from some "difficult" calling contexts. These fixes
 avoid using the console system where we have been provided an
 alternative (safer) way to interact with the user and, if using the
 console system in unavoidable, use oops_in_progress for deadlock
 avoidance. These fixes also ensure kdb honours the console enable flag.
 
 Also included is a fix that wraps kgdb trap handling in an RCU read lock
 to avoids triggering diagnostic warnings. This is a wide lock scope but
 this is OK because kgdb is a stop-the-world debugger. When we stop the
 world we put all the CPUs into holding pens and this inhibits RCU update
 anyway.
