[PATCH v3 4/4] arm64: kgdb: Round up cpus using IPI_CALL_NMI_FUNC

arm64 platforms with GICv3 or later supports pseudo NMIs which can be
leveraged to round up CPUs which are stuck in hard lockup state with
interrupts disabled that wouldn't be possible with a normal IPI.

So instead switch to round up CPUs using IPI_CALL_NMI_FUNC. And in
case a particular arm64 platform doesn't supports pseudo NMIs,
IPI_CALL_NMI_FUNC will act as a normal IPI which maintains existing
kgdb functionality.
