    kgdb,debug-core,gdbstub: Hook the reboot notifier for debugger detach
    
    The gdbstub and kdb should get detached if the system is rebooting.
    Calling gdbstub_exit() will set the proper debug core state and send a
    message to any debugger that is connected to correctly detach.
    
    An attached debugger will receive the exit code from
    include/linux/reboot.h based on SYS_HALT, SYS_REBOOT, etc...
