1. In case of a kernel panic, is a core created ?.
Can I debug the core by gdb. ?
( I do a gdb -c on /proc/kcore. I get a message register
st0 not found.)

2. In case of remote debugging of a driver, the breakpoints are not
getting mapped to the actual function addresses. Also
when I map it to the function address ( from /proc/ksyms),
there is mismatch between the listed code and the breakpoint.
Is there any mistake I am doing?
