Subject: [PATCH 10/28] kgdb,8250,pl011: Return immediately from console poll

The design of the kdb shell requires that every device that can
provide input to kdb have a polling routine that exits immediately if
there is no character available.  This is required in order to get the
page scrolling mechanism working.

Changing the kernel debugger I/O API to require all polling character
routines to exit immediately if there is no data allows the kernel
debugger to process multiple input channels.

NO_POLL_CHAR will be the return code to the polling routine when ever
there is no character available.  There are several other console
polling drivers which can be modified, but for the prototype only the
8250 and pl011 driver have been changed to make use of this.
