x86/debug: Allow a single level of #DB recursion
Browse files Browse the repository at this point in the history
Trying to clear DR7 around a #DB from usermode malfunctions if the tasks
schedules when delivering SIGTRAP.

Rather than trying to define a special no-recursion region, just allow a
single level of recursion.  The same mechanism is used for NMI, and it
hasn't caused any problems yet.

Fixes: 9f58fdd ("x86/db: Split out dr6/7 handling")
