linux-next: kgdb tree build failure

From: Stephen Rothwell

Hi Jason,

Today's linux-next build (x86_64 allmodconfig) failed like this:

ERROR: "kgdb_active" [drivers/video/console/fbcon.ko] undefined!
ERROR: "want_console" [drivers/serial/kgdboc.ko] undefined!
ERROR: "last_console" [drivers/serial/kgdboc.ko] undefined!
ERROR: "kgdb_active" [drivers/gpu/drm/drm_kms_helper.ko] undefined!

Caused by various commits from the kgdb tree.

I added this patch for today:
