x86/debug: Handle warnings before the notifier chain, to fix KGDB crash
commit b8347c2196492f4e1cccde3d92fda1cc2cc7de7e upstream. Commit: 9a93848fe787 ("x86/debug: Implement __WARN() using UD0") turned warnings into UD0, but the fixup code only runs after the notify_die() chain. This is a problem, in particular, with kgdb, which kicks in as if it was a BUG(). Fix this by running the fixup code before the notifier chain in the invalid op handler path.
