kgdb: Delay "kgdbwait" to dbg_late_init() by default

Browse Source 
Using kgdb requires at least some level of architecture-level
initialization.  If nothing else, it relies on the architecture to
pass breakpoints / crashes onto kgdb.

On some architectures this all works super early, specifically it
starts working at some point in time before Linux parses
early_params's.  On other architectures it doesn't.  A survey of a few
platforms:

a) x86: Presumably it all works early since "ekgdboc" is documented to
   work here.
b) arm64: Catching crashes works; with a simple patch breakpoints can
   also be made to work.
c) arm: Nothing in kgdb works until
   paging_init() -> devicemaps_init() -> early_trap_init()

Let's be conservative and, by default, process "kgdbwait" (which tells
the kernel to drop into the debugger ASAP at boot) a bit later at
dbg_late_init() time.  If an architecture has tested it and wants to
re-enable super early debugging, they can select the
ARCH_HAS_EARLY_DEBUG KConfig option.  We'll do this for x86 to start.
It should be noted that dbg_late_init() is still called quite early in
the system.

Note that this patch doesn't affect when kgdb runs its init.  If kgdb
is set to initialize early it will still initialize when parsing
early_param's.  This patch _only_ inhibits the initial breakpoint from
"kgdbwait".  This means:

* Without any extra patches arm64 platforms will at least catch
  crashes after kgdb inits.
* arm platforms will catch crashes (and could handle a hardcoded
  kgdb_breakpoint()) any time after early_trap_init() runs, even
  before dbg_late_init().

help
If an architecture can definitely handle entering the debugger
when early_param's are parsed then it select this config.
Otherwise, if "kgdbwait" is passed on the kernel command line it
won't actually be processed until dbg_late_init() just after the
call to kgdb_arch_late() is made.
NOTE: Even if this isn't selected by an architecture we will
still try to register kgdb to handle breakpoints and crashes
when early_param's are parsed, we just won't act on the
"kgdbwait" parameter until dbg_late_init(). If you get a
crash and try to drop into kgdb somewhere between these two
places you might or might not end up being able to use kgdb
depending on exactly how far along the architecture has initted.
