Douglas Anderson 6d703922bc kgdb: Flush console before entering kgdb on panic
[ Upstream commit dd712d3d45807db9fcae28a522deee85c1f2fde6 ]

When entering kdb/kgdb on a kernel panic, it was be observed that the
console isn't flushed before the `kdb` prompt came up. Specifically,
when using the buddy lockup detector on arm64 and running:
  echo HARDLOCKUP > /sys/kernel/debug/provoke-crash/DIRECT

I could see:
  [   26.161099] lkdtm: Performing direct entry HARDLOCKUP
  [   32.499881] watchdog: Watchdog detected hard LOCKUP on cpu 6
  [   32.552865] Sending NMI from CPU 5 to CPUs 6:
  [   32.557359] NMI backtrace for cpu 6
  ... [backtrace for cpu 6] ...
  [   32.558353] NMI backtrace for cpu 5
  ... [backtrace for cpu 5] ...
  [   32.867471] Sending NMI from CPU 5 to CPUs 0-4,7:
  [   32.872321] NMI backtrace forP cpuANC: Hard LOCKUP

  Entering kdb (current=..., pid 0) on processor 5 due to Keyboard Entry
  [5]kdb>

As you can see, backtraces for the other CPUs start printing and get
interleaved with the kdb PANIC print.

Let's replicate the commands to flush the console in the kdb panic
entry point to avoid this.

README

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.
