Merge tag 'for_linus-3.7' of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/jwessel/kgdb

Pull KGDB/KDB fixes and cleanups from Jason Wessel:
 "Cleanups
   - Clean up compile warnings in kgdboc.c and x86/kernel/kgdb.c
   - Add module event hooks for simplified debugging with gdb
 Fixes
   - Fix kdb to stop paging with 'q' on bta and dmesg
   - Fix for data that scrolls off the vga console due to line wrapping
     when using the kdb pager
 New
   - The debug core registers for kernel module events which allows a
     kernel aware gdb to automatically load symbols and break on entry
     to a kernel module
   - Allow kgdboc=kdb to setup kdb on the vga console"
