The arch_kgdb_breakpoint() function defines the kgdb_compiled_break
symbol using inline assembly.

There's a potential issue where the compiler might inline
arch_kgdb_breakpoint(), which would then define the kgdb_compiled_break
symbol multiple times, leading to fail to link vmlinux.o.

This isn't merely a potential compilation problem. The intent here
is to determine the global symbol address of kgdb_compiled_break,
and if this function is inlined multiple times, it would logically
be a grave error.

Changelog:
 *v1->v2:
    1. Add the missing __ASSEMBLY__ check and substitute
".option rvc/norvc" with ".option push/pop".
  v2->v3:
    1. Remove "extern".
    2. Restore the inadvertently deleted .option norvc to prevent
a change in semantics.
  v3->v4:
    1. Replace kgdb_breakinst into kgdb_compiled_break.
    2. Split the origin patch into 2.
