Daniel Thompson ecef5df796 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.

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.
