target: slow targets could cause GDB to time out
This second half of the patch is proposed to clean up some GDB keep alive
issues on arm7_9 targets that start up with very slow clocks. If an attempt
is made to write to key registers on the processor with a slow jtag speed,
GDB timeout warnings appear on the console (at least mine) when "reset halt"
or "reset init" commands are issued from the gdb client:

I added additional keep alive steps in areas that troubleshooting revealed
were causing problems. I only did this however for non-fast write memory
accesses. I don't think most people would be using fast memory accesses to
write to memory when the jtag and system clocks are slow anyway.
If you disagree with my feeling, think there is a more elegant way to handle
the problem, or think the patch will cause other unforeseen problems with
other targets, let me know. As you can see below, the patch does eliminate
the problem on my development station and I suspect that it will benefit
others.
