I'm excited to see others using kgdb! :-)

As far as I can tell your patch is good, or at least as seems like it
will make MIPS on par with other platforms. I always wondered why
MIPS (and ARC) didn't have the get_irq_regs() call but when I last
touched this code I left it alone since I didn't have the history for
it and had no way to test. Since it seems like you have a way to test
this then we should do it. Now to find someone who would do the same
for ARC. :-P Thus:

Reviewed-by: Douglas Anderson <dianders@chromium.org>

NOTE as pointed out in code reviews when I last touched this code,
using get_irq_regs() isn't perfect since it could plausibly return
NULL. I created a bug in the Chromium tracker with all the details
for this at <https://crbug.com/908723>.
