Subject: [PATCH 2/2] tool and script help GDB load Linux kernel modules (script)

getmod.py is a application of KGTP (https://kgtp.googlecode.com) too.

After GDB connected to the gdbstub such as KGTP, KGDB, QEMU, call it with
GDB command "source getmod.py".  Then GDB will auto load all the debug
info of Linux Kernel modules.

Because GDB need parse the struct the data of module list, this script is
slower than getmod.
