Subject[PATCH 4.19 167/191] drm/amd/display: Dont invoke kgdb_breakpoint() unconditionally
Date
From: Takashi Iwai <tiwai@suse.de>

commit 8b7dc1fe1a5c1093551f6cd7dfbb941bd9081c2e upstream.

ASSERT_CRITICAL() invokes kgdb_breakpoint() whenever either
CONFIG_KGDB or CONFIG_HAVE_KGDB is set. This, however, may lead to a
kernel panic when no kdb stuff is attached, since the
kgdb_breakpoint() call issues INT3. It's nothing but a surprise for
normal end-users.

For avoiding the pitfall, make the kgdb_breakpoint() call only when
CONFIG_DEBUG_KERNEL_DC is set.
