From: Jason Wessel Subject: [PATCH] x86,kgdb: disable kgdb hw breakpoints until they are fixed Using hw breakpoints can hang the kgdb test suite or yeild unpredictable results while debugging due to the recent hw_breakpoint changes in 2.6.33. Until this is fixed, disable kgdb hw breakpoint support.
