Daniel Thompson b5fb355c9f serial: kgdboc: Fix NMI-safety problems from keyboard reset code
commit b2aba15ad6f908d1a620fd97f6af5620c3639742 upstream.

Currently, when kdb is compiled with keyboard support, then we will use
schedule_work() to provoke reset of the keyboard status.  Unfortunately
schedule_work() gets called from the kgdboc post-debug-exception
handler.  That risks deadlock since schedule_work() is not NMI-safe and,
even on platforms where the NMI is not directly used for debugging, the
debug trap can have NMI-like behaviour depending on where breakpoints
are placed.

Fix this by using the irq work system, which is NMI-safe, to defer the
call to schedule_work() to a point when it is safe to call.
