In order to make early kgdb work properly we need early_brk64() to be
able to call into it.  This is as easy as adding a call into
call_break_hook() just like we do later in the normal brk_handler().

Once we do this we can let kgdb know that it can break into the
debugger a little earlier (specifically when parsing early_param's).

NOTE: without this patch it turns out that arm64 can't do breakpoints
even at dbg_late_init(), so if we decide something about this patch is
wrong we might need to move dbg_late_init() a little later.

I haven't done any testing at this point (I'd hope to enable tests
for this in the test suite), however FWIW and just so you know I didn't
forget about this patch:
