[v4,05/12] arm64: Add call_break_hook() to early_brk64() for early kgdb

In order to make early kgdb work properly we need early_brk64() to be
able to call into it.  This is as easy as adding a call into
call_break_hook() just like we do later in the normal brk_handler().

Once we do this we can let kgdb know that it can break into the
debugger a little earlier (specifically when parsing early_param's).

NOTE: without this patch it turns out that arm64 can't do breakpoints
even at dbg_late_init(), so if we decide something about this patch is
wrong we might need to move dbg_late_init() a little later.

As discussed in the replies to the v3 version of this patch [1], I
have posted a replacement patch for this one [2].  After the cut in
the replacement patch I talk about different ways it could land.
Hopefully that's not too confusing.  I can also re-spam everyone with
a v5 of the whole series if that makes it clearer.
