Dongdong Deng c1bb9a9c19 debug_core: disable hw_breakpoints on all cores in kgdb_cpu_enter()
The slave cpus do not have the hw breakpoints disabled upon entry to
the debug_core and as a result could cause unrecoverable recursive
faults on badly placed breakpoints, or get out of sync with the arch
specific hw breakpoint operations.

This patch addresses the problem by invoking kgdb_disable_hw_debug()
earlier in kgdb_enter_cpu for each cpu that enters the debug core.

The hw breakpoint dis/enable flow should be:

master_debug_cpu   slave_debug_cpu
         \              /
          kgdb_cpu_enter
                |
        kgdb_disable_hw_debug --> uninstall pre-enabled hw_breakpoint
                |
 do add/rm dis/enable operates to hw_breakpoints on master_debug_cpu..
                |
        correct_hw_break --> correct/install the enabled hw_breakpoint
                |
           leave_kgdb
