Subject: [GIT PULL] kgdb changes for v6.8

Hi Linus

Apologies for sending this so late in merge window, especially given as
you will see from the diffstat I can hardly claim to be overworked in
this regard!

  kdb: Fix a potential buffer overflow in kdb_local() (2024-01-17 17:19:06 +0000)

----------------------------------------------------------------
kgdb patches for 6.8

The entire changeset for kgdb this cycle is a single two-line change to
remove some deadcode that, had it not been dead, would have called
strncpy() in an unsafe manner.

To be fair there were other modest clean ups were discussed this cycle
but they are not finalized and will have to wait until next time.
