kgdbts: prevent re-entry to kgdbts before it unregisters
The "kgdb_connected" variable of debug_core just indicates whether or not kgdbts is connected to the debug_core. It does not completely prevent a script from trying invoke kgdbts again and possibly crashing the system (see Call Trace below). The configured variable in kgtbts can be used instead of kgdb_connected instead of kgdb_connected. The cleanup_kgdbts() can also be removed because there is no possible way to build kgdbts as a kernel module that you could unload with rmmod.
