[PATCH 5/8] kgdb,debug_core: Use atomic operators which use barriers

[Jason Wessel <jason.wessel@windriver.com>]

A cpu_relax() does not mandate that there is an smp memory barrier.
As a result on the arm smp architecture the kernel debugger can hang
on entry from time to time, as shown by the kgdb regression tests.

The solution is simply to use the atomic operators which include a
proper smp memory barrier, instead of using atomic_set() and
atomic_read().
