David S. Miller 42cc77c861 sparc64: Reschedule KGDB capture to a software interrupt.
Otherwise it might interrupt switch_to() midstream and use
half-cooked register window state.

/* To avoid some locking problems, we hard allocate certain PILs
* for SMP cross call messages that must do a etrap/rtrap.
*
* A local_irq_disable() does not block the cross call delivery, so
* when SMP locking is an issue we reschedule the event into a PIL
* interrupt which is blocked by local_irq_disable().
*
* In fact any XCALL which has to etrap/rtrap has a problem because
* it is difficult to prevent rtrap from running BH's, and that would
* need to be done if the XCALL arrived while %pil==PIL_NORMAL_MAX.
*
* Finally, in order to handle profiling events even when a
* local_irq_disable() is in progress, we only disable up to level 14
* interrupts. Profile counter overflow interrupts arrive at level
* 15.
