x86/debug: Allow a single level of #DB recursion
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.

Linux kernel ============ There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first. In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or ``make pdfdocs``. The formatted documentation can also be read online at: https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/ There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory, several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation. Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
