Linus, please pull the kgdb git tree fixes for 2.6.27.

git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/jwessel/linux-2.6-kgdb.git for_linus


Summary:

Several regressions have been fixed for which there was no automated test.
- There is no requirement for CONFIG_FRAME_POINTER.
- When using CONFIG_DEBUG_RODATA kgdb silently failed to set
breakpoints instead of reporting an error.
- The ability to query for the thread list from the debugger
would silently hang the kernel.

Jason Wessel (3):
kgdb: remove the requirement for CONFIG_FRAME_POINTER
kgdb: fix kgdb_validate_break_address to perform a mem write
kgdb: fix gdb serial thread queries
