I have to recall my last wrong patch.

In blackfin, kgdb is running in delayed exception IRQ5 other than in
exception IRQ3 directly.  Register reti other than retx in pt_regs is
the kgdb return address. So, don't put PC in gdb_regs into retx.

, field pc in struct pt_regs is where kernel resumes from an interrupt.=
 So, BFIN_PC is actually retx when do kernel debugging.
