powerpc/xmon: Setup debugger hooks when first break-point is set
Presently sysrq key for xmon('x') is registered during kernel init irrespective of the value of kernel param 'xmon'. Thus xmon is enabled even if 'xmon=off' is passed on the kernel command line. However this doesn't enable the kernel debugger hooks needed for instruction or data breakpoints. Thus when a break-point is hit with xmon=off a kernel oops of the form below is reported: Oops: Exception in kernel mode, sig: 5 [#1] < snip > Trace/breakpoint trap To fix this the patch checks and enables debugger hooks when an instruction or data break-point is set via xmon console.
