This doesn't work.  Now there is a "warning: mixing declarations and
code" warning message for people who have CONFIG_DEBUG_RODATA
turned on.

I sent one of these yesterday where I did:

	if (!config_enabled(CONFIG_DEBUG_RODATA))
		return err;

But test it both ways and do a make arch/x86/kernel/kgdb.i and
make sure the code looks ok.
