Without this patch the "ll" linked-list traversal command won't
terminate when you hit q/Q.

Certain calls from the kdb shell will call out to printk(), and any of
these calls should get vectored back to the kdb_printf() so that the
kdb pager and processing can be used, as well as to properly channel
I/O to the polled I/O devices.

If kdb is open on a serial port that is not actually a console make
sure to call the poll routines to emit and receive characters.

This patch adds in the kdb PS/2 keyboard driver. This was mostly a
direct port from the original kdb where I cleaned up the code against
checkpatch.pl and added the glue to stitch it into kgdb.
This patch also enables early kdb debug via kgdbwait and the keyboard.
All the access to configure kdb using either a serial console or the
keyboard is done via kgdboc.
If you want to use only the keyboard and want to break in early you
would add to your kernel command arguments:
kgdboc=kbd kgdbwait
If you wanted serial and or the keyboard access you could use:
kgdboc=kbd,ttyS0
You can also configure kgdboc as a kernel module or at run time with
the sysfs where you can activate and deactivate kgdb.
Turn it on:
echo kbd,ttyS0 > /sys/module/kgdboc/parameters/kgdboc
Turn it off:
echo "" > /sys/module/kgdboc/parameters/kgdboc

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.

The design of the kdb shell requires that every device that can
provide input to kdb have a polling routine that exits immediately if
there is no character available. This is required in order to get the
page scrolling mechanism working.
Changing the kernel debugger I/O API to require all polling character
routines to exit immediately if there is no data allows the kernel
debugger to process multiple input channels.
NO_POLL_CHAR will be the return code to the polling routine when ever
there is no character 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.
