kgdb: Timeout if secondary CPUs ignore the roundupdev/kgdb-timeout
Currently if an active CPU fails to respond to a roundup request the
CPU that requested the roundup will become stuck. This needlessly
reduces the robustness of the debugger.
This patch introduces a timeout allowing the system state to be examined
even when the system contains unresponsive processors. It also modifies
kdb's cpu command to make it censor attempts to switch to unresponsive
processors and to report their state as (D)ead.
