Currently kgdb honours the kprobe blocklist but doesn't place its own trap handling code on the list. Add labels to discourage attempting to use kgdb to debug itself. Not every functions that executes from the trap handler needs to be marked up: relatively early in the trap handler execution (just after we bring the other CPUs to a halt) all breakpoints are replaced with the original opcodes. This patch marks up code in the debug_core that executes between trap entry and the breakpoints being deactivated and, also, code that executes between breakpoint activation and trap exit. To be clear these changes are not sufficient to make recursive trapping impossible since they do not include library calls made during kgdb's entry/exit logic. However going much further whilst we are sharing the kprobe blocklist risks reducing the capabilities of kprobe and this would be a bad trade off (especially so given kgdb's users are currently conditioned to avoid recursive traps).

Linux kernel
============
There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can
be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read
Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first.
In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``. The formatted documentation can also be read online at:
https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/
There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation.
Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the
requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about
the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
