This is part of the code to bring all the cores to a halt and since the other cores are still running kgdb isn't yet able to use the fact all the CPUs are halted to bend the rules. It is better for this code to play by the rules if it can. Is is possible to get the roundup functions to use a private csd alongside smp_call_function_single_async()? We could add a helper function to the debug core to avoid having to add cpu_online loops into every kgdb_roundup_cpus() implementaton.
