[PATCH 12/13] RFC ONLY - kgdb, kdb: use async breakpoint for sysrq for usb

This is a RFC patch.  The work to possibly merge kdb and kgdb is being
evaluated and this patch is considered only a proof of concept or
prototype.

For kdb, the usb keyboard will become disabled if you use a sysrq
sequence to enter kdb.  Using a tasklet solves the problem.
