forgot to add that by default my patch compiles the kernel (and modules)
with -g. This is done because although in dynamic situations kdb is
invaluable, in quasi-static (when things change slowly and depend on
user's actions) situations I find it more useful to find out addresses in
kdb and then dump the relevant data structures nicely formatted by
"gdb vmlinux /proc/kcore"
