fixed: there was just one such file remaining: include/linux/kgdb.h.

agreed, done.

i'd agree in general but this is really a special case, please look at 
the context. This would duplicate all the kerneldoc headers for all 
architectures. We'd have to move the same kerneldoc header to all 
architecture arch/*/kernel/kgdb.c files. It's much nicer in 
asm-generic/kgdb.h.

i dont think so. Which ones do you mean? I just reviewed them and they 
are either already done, or moot (for kgdb complications that i objected 
to and removed from this kgdb-x86 tree).

anyway, i've implemented all these (trivial) tweaks you just mentioned 
and re-tested on 32-bit and 64-bit x86, backmerged the fixes to their 
proper places, and pushed the clean series out again to:

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