Subject: [PATCH]kgdb:remove redundant function invocation


It seems strange to call kgdboc_option_setup with parameter of config from 
configure_kgdboc(), because kgdboc_option_setup() is used to fill config
with stuff in other place. Now, kgdboc_option_setup will fill config
with config itself. But on the other hand, kgdboc_option_setup has a 
additional effect to check whether config overflows or not.

Is it ok to remove kgdboc_option_setup?
