Merge tag 'for_linus-3.19-rc4' of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/jwessel/kgdb
Pull kgdb/kdb fixes from Jason Wessel:
"These have been around since 3.17 and in kgdb-next for the last 9
weeks and some will go back to -stable.
Summary of changes:
Cleanups
- kdb: Remove unused command flags, repeat flags and KDB_REPEAT_NONE
Fixes
- kgdb/kdb: Allow access on a single core, if a CPU round up is
deemed impossible, which will allow inspection of the now "trashed"
kernel
- kdb: Add enable mask for the command groups
- kdb: access controls to restrict sensitive commands"
