NACK. This patch is assuming that vmlinux-gdb.py is (only) started from the scripts/gdb folder. But CONFIG_GDB_SCRIPTS places a link to vmlinux-gdb.py aside the vmlinux binary in the top-level folder. That way, the script is auto-loaded by gdb.
If you have a compelling use case for loading the script manually from its original folder, we can discuss augmenting the path. But removing the existing one is wrong.
Andrew, please drop the patch from your queue.
