The arch_kgdb_breakpoint() function defines the kgdb_breakinst
symbol using inline assembly.
There's a potential issue where the compiler might inline
arch_kgdb_breakpoint(), which would then define the kgdb_breakinst
symbol multiple times, leading to a linker error.
To prevent this, declare arch_kgdb_breakpoint() as noline.
Fix follow error with LLVM-19 *only* when LTO_CLANG_FULL:
LD vmlinux.o
ld.lld-19: error: ld-temp.o <inline asm>:3:1: symbol 'kgdb_breakinst' is already defined
kgdb_breakinst: break 2
^
Additionally, remove "nop" here because it's meaningless for LoongArch
here.

1. Drop the nop which is no effect for LoongArch here.
2. Add "STACK_FRAME_NON_STANDARD" for arch_kgdb_breakpoint() to

Is there a better solution than STACK_FRAME_NON_STANDARD()? In the
past we can use annotate_reachable() in arch_kgdb_breakpoint(), but
annotate_reachable() is no longer exist.

Maybe we can parse the imm-code of `break` and set diffrent insn_type in
objtool.
The BRK_KDB imply the PC will go head, while the BRK_BUG imply PC stop.

Touching objtool may be a little complicated, is ANNOTATE_REACHABLE()
the successor of annotate_reachable()? I tried
ANNOTATE_REACHABLE(kgdb_breakinst) but there was still a warning.

Should it annotate to the next insn of `break`?
Like,
kgdb_breakinst:
break 2
another_label:
ANNOTATE_REACHABLE(another_label)
