Fix the following sparse warnings:
kdb_main.c:328:5: warning: symbol 'kdbgetu64arg' was not declared. Should it be static?
kgdboc.c:246:12: warning: symbol 'kgdboc_early_init' was not declared. Should it be static?
kgdb.c:652:26: warning: incorrect type in argument 1 (different address spaces)
kgdb.c:652:26: expected void const *ptr
kgdb.c:652:26: got struct perf_event *[noderef] <asn:3>*pev
The one in kgdb.c required the (void * __force) because of the return
code from register_wide_hw_breakpoint looking like:
return (void __percpu __force *)ERR_PTR(err);

In order to allow kernel modules to dynamically add a command to the
kdb shell the kdb_register, kdb_register_repeat, kdb_unregister, and
kdb_printf need to be exported as GPL symbols.
Any kernel module that adds a dynamic kdb shell function should only
need to include linux/kdb.h.

If CONFIG_KGDB_KDB is set and CONFIG_KALLSYMS is not set the kernel
will fail to build with the error:
kernel/built-in.o: In function `kallsyms_symbol_next':
kernel/debug/kdb/kdb_support.c:237: undefined reference to `kdb_walk_kallsyms'
kernel/built-in.o: In function `kallsyms_symbol_complete':
kernel/debug/kdb/kdb_support.c:193: undefined reference to `kdb_walk_kallsyms'
The kdb_walk_kallsyms needs a #ifdef proper header to match the C
implementation. This patch also fixes the compiler warnings in
kdb_support.c when compiling without CONFIG_KALLSYMS set. The
compiler warnings are a result of the kallsyms_lookup() macro not
initializing the two of the pass by reference variables.

The kernel console interface stores the number of lines it is
configured to use. The kdb debugger can greatly benefit by knowing how
many lines there are on the console for the pager functionality
without having the end user compile in the setting or have to
repeatedly change it at run time.

One of the driving forces behind integrating another front end (kdb)
to the debug core is to allow front end commands to be accessible via
gdb's monitor command. It is true that you could write gdb macros to
get certain data, but you may want to just use gdb to access the
commands that are available in the kdb front end.
This patch implements the Rcmd gdb stub packet. In gdb you access
this with the "monitor" command. For instance you could type "monitor
help", "monitor lsmod" or "monitor ps A" etc...
There is no error checking or command restrictions on what you can and
cannot access at this point. Doing something like trying to set
breakpoints with the monitor command is going to cause nothing but
problems. Perhaps in the future only the commands that are actually
known to work with the gdb monitor command will be available.

This patch contains only the kdb core. Because the change set was
large, it was split. The next patch in the series includes the
instrumentation into the core kernel which are mainly helper functions
for kdb.
This work is directly derived from kdb v4.4 found at:
ftp://oss.sgi.com/projects/kdb/download/v4.4/
The kdb internals have been re-organized to make them mostly platform
independent and to connect everything to the debug core which is used by
gdbstub (which has long been known as kgdb).
The original version of kdb was 58,000 lines worth of changes to
support x86. From that implementation only the kdb shell, and basic
commands for memory access, runcontrol, lsmod, and dmesg where carried
forward.
This is a generic implementation which aims to cover all the current
architectures using the kgdb core: ppc, arm, x86, mips, sparc, sh and
blackfin. More archictectures can be added by implementing the
architecture specific kgdb functions.
