Ugh. Actually, I think the commit to blame is:

eae3e19ca930 ("kgdboc: Remove useless #ifdef
CONFIG_KGDB_SERIAL_CONSOLE in kgdboc")

The next commit just made it worse. Apparently the #ifdef wasn't so
useless after all. It was just subtly keeping the code from compiling
when kgdboc was used as a module. That's because when it's a module
we instead get this defined:

#define CONFIG_KGDB_SERIAL_CONSOLE_MODULE 1

Apparently I didn't re-test as a module after I made this change in
one of the later spins. :(

I think I can whip up a quick patch that uses "IS_BUILTIN(option)".
Basically this should go back to how the code was in one of the
earlier patchsets where I tested this.
