[PATCH] ARM: Don't oops when userspace executes kgdb break instructions.

[Omar Sandoval]

Don't break into kgdb when userspace executes the kernel break instructions
(KGDB_BREAKINST and KGDB_COMPILED_BREAK). The kernel will oops in
kgdb_handle_exception.

The following program will immediately cause a kernel oops:
.globl _start
