The kgdb_single_step flag has the possibility to indefinitely
hang the system on an SMP system.
The x86 arch have the same problem, and that problem was fixed by
commit 8097551d9ab9b9e3630(kgdb,x86: do not set kgdb_single_step
on x86). This patch does the same behaviors as x86's patch.

We need to skip a breakpoint exception when it occurs after
a breakpoint has already been removed.

For powerpc BooKE and e200, singlestep is handled on the critical/dbg
exception stack. This causes current_thread_info() to fail for kgdb
internal, so previously We work around this issue by copying
the thread_info from the kernel stack before calling kgdb_handle_exception,
and copying it back afterwards.
But actually we don't do this previously. We should backp current_thread_info
then restore that when exit.

int kgdb_skipexception(int exception, struct pt_regs *regs)
{
return !!kgdb_isremovedbreak(regs->nip));
}
If the caller only cares about zero vs. non-zero, you can drop the !!.

Yes, so 'return kgdb_isremovedbreak(regs->nip);' is already fine and simple.
I'll update this as v2 so thanks your comment.
