kdb: Make kdb_printf() console handling more robust

While rounding up CPUs via NMIs, its possible that a rounded up CPU
maybe holding a console port lock leading to kgdb master CPU stuck in
a deadlock during invocation of console write operations. A similar
deadlock could also be possible while using synchronous breakpoints.

So in order to avoid such a deadlock, set oops_in_progress to encourage
the console drivers to disregard their internal spin locks: in the
current calling context the risk of deadlock is a bigger problem than
risks due to re-entering the console driver. We operate directly on
oops_in_progress rather than using bust_spinlocks() because the calls
bust_spinlocks() makes on exit are not appropriate for this calling
context.
