2008-07-30	[MIPS] kgdb: add arch support for the kernel's kgdb core	Jason Wessel
	The new kgdb architecture specific handler registers and unregisters dynamically for exceptions depending on when you configure a kgdb I/O driver. Aside from initializing the exceptions earlier in the boot process, kgdb should have no impact on a device when it is compiled in so long as an I/O module is not configured for use. There have been quite a number of contributors during the existence of this patch (see arch/mips/kernel/kgdb.c). Most recently Jason re-wrote the mips kgdb logic to use the die notification handlers.

2007-05-08	move die notifier handling to common code	Christoph Hellwig
	This patch moves the die notifier handling to common code. Previous various architectures had exactly the same code for it. Note that the new code is compiled unconditionally, this should be understood as an appel to the other architecture maintainer to implement support for it aswell (aka sprinkling a notify_die or two in the proper place) arm had a notifiy_die that did something totally different, I renamed it to arm_notify_die as part of the patch and made it static to the file it's declared and used at. avr32 used to pass slightly less information through this interface and I brought it into line with the other architectures.
