Merge tag 'for_linus-3.4-rc1' of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/jwessel/kgdb
Pull KGDB/KDB updates from Jason Wessel:
"Fixes:
- Fix KDB keyboard repeat scan codes and leaked keyboard events
- Fix kernel crash with kdb_printf() for users who compile new
kdb_printf()'s in early code
- Return all segment registers to gdb on x86_64
Features:
- KDB/KGDB hook the reboot notifier and end user can control if it
stops, detaches or does nothing (updated docs as well)
- Notify users who use CONFIG_DEBUG_RODATA to use hw breakpoints"
