    After commit ddde3c18 ("vt: More locking checks") kdb / kgdb has
    become useless because my console is filled with spews of:

    Let's disable this warning when we're in kgdb to avoid the spew.  The
    whole system is stopped when we're in kgdb so we can't exactly wait
    for someone else to drop the lock.  Presumably the best we can do is
    to disable the warning and hope for the best.
