This patch introduces several new flags to collect kdb commands into
groups (later allowing them to be optionally disabled).

This follows similar prior art to enable/disable magic sysrq
commands.

The commands have been categorized as follows:

Always on:  go (w/o args), env, set, help, ?, cpu (w/o args), sr,
            dmesg, disable_nmi, defcmd, summary, grephelp
Mem read:   md, mdr, mdp, mds, ef, bt (with args), per_cpu
Mem write:  mm
Reg read:   rd
Reg write:  go (with args), rm
Inspect:    bt (w/o args), btp, bta, btc, btt, ps, pid, lsmod
Flow ctrl:  bp, bl, bph, bc, be, bd, ss
Signal:     kill
Reboot:     reboot
All:        cpu, kgdb, (and all of the above), nmi_console

Since we now treat KDB_REPEAT_* as flags, there is no need to
pass KDB_REPEAT_NONE. It's just the default behaviour when no
flags are specified.

We're about to add more options for commands behaviour, so let's give
a more generic name to the low-level kdb command registration function.

There are just various renames, no functional changes.

The kernel used to contain two functions for length-delimited,
case-insensitive string comparison, strnicmp with correct semantics and
a slightly buggy strncasecmp.  The latter is the POSIX name, so strnicmp
was renamed to strncasecmp, and strnicmp made into a wrapper for the new
strncasecmp to avoid breaking existing users.

To allow the compat wrapper strnicmp to be removed at some point in the
future, and to avoid the extra indirection cost, do
s/strnicmp/strncasecmp/g.

The 'ssb' command can only be handled when we have a disassembler, to check for
branches, so remove the 'ssb' command for now.

On x86, if CONFIG_DEBUG_RODATA is set, one cannot set breakpoints
via KDB.  Apparently this is a well-known problem, as at least one distribution
now ships with both KDB enabled and CONFIG_DEBUG_RODATA=y for security reasons.

This patch adds an printk message to the breakpoint failure case,
in order to provide suggestions about how to use the debugger.

This patch contains only the kdb core.  Because the change set was
large, it was split.  The next patch in the series includes the
instrumentation into the core kernel which are mainly helper functions
for kdb.

This work is directly derived from kdb v4.4 found at:

ftp://oss.sgi.com/projects/kdb/download/v4.4/

The kdb internals have been re-organized to make them mostly platform
independent and to connect everything to the debug core which is used by
gdbstub (which has long been known as kgdb).

The original version of kdb was 58,000 lines worth of changes to
support x86.  From that implementation only the kdb shell, and basic
commands for memory access, runcontrol, lsmod, and dmesg where carried
forward.

This is a generic implementation which aims to cover all the current
architectures using the kgdb core: ppc, arm, x86, mips, sparc, sh and
blackfin.  More archictectures can be added by implementing the
architecture specific kgdb functions.
