serial: kgdb_nmi: Switch from tasklets to real timers

Browse Source 
kgdb_nmi uses tasklets on the assumption they will not be scheduled
until the next timer tick. This assumption is invalid and can lead to
live lock, continually servicing the kgdb_nmi tasklet. This is fixed
by using the timer API instead.
