Subject[PATCH 0/3] KGDB/KDB/UV: Fixups for UV to KGDB interface

v2: Update patch 2/3 to include which problems fixed. Other minor
changes detailed in the patches.

* 1/3: Change the fix for 'KDB not defined' build problem by changing
the kgdb_nmicallin() interface to include the KDB specific reason code.
This removes the dependency on KDB in the debug core. It also requires
a change to the kgdb call in from UV NMI handler to avoid a compile
error.

* 2/3: Fix problems found by the kbuild test robot tip-bot:
Make uv_register_nmi_notifier() and uv_handle_nmi_ping() static to
address sparse warnings. Fix problem where uv_nmi_kexec_failed is
unused when CONFIG_KEXEC is not defined.

* 3/3: Fix UV call into kgdb to depend only on whether KGDB is defined
and not both KGDB and KDB. This allows the power nmi command to
use the gdb remote connection if enabled. Note new action of 'kgdb'
needs to be set as well to indicate user wants the kernel to wait for
gdb to be connected. If it's set to 'kdb' then an error message is
displayed if KDB is not configured.

Also note that if both KGDB and KDB are enabled, then the action
of 'kgdb' or 'kdb' has no affect on which is used. See the KGDB
documentation for further information.
