Hey, if you do happen to have something, why not send it along.  I just asked the linux-next folks to re-activate the kgdb-next branch so that merges can start taking place again.  It appears that the final merge request never even went through from linux-next as I just rebased it and there was a patch in there from Daniel dating back to over a year ago.

If there is work out there that needs merging and reviews lets get it done.  I had been kind of stuck in time on what seems like the stone age 3.14 kernel projects until recently, but jumped back into mainline development about a month ago.

I have no objection to merging the ARM64 single step patch and have comments in a separate mail that follows with respect to the patch.


Cheers,
Jason.
