kdb: Implement disable_nmi command
This command disables NMI-entry. If NMI source has been previously shared with a serial console ("debug port"), this effectively releases the port from KDB exclusive use, and makes the console available for normal use. Of course, NMI can be reenabled, enable_nmi modparam is used for that: echo 1 > /sys/module/kdb/parameters/enable_nmi Signed-off-by: Anton Vorontsov <anton.vorontsov@linaro.org> Acked-by: Jason Wessel <jason.wessel@windriver.com> Signed-off-by: Greg Kroah-Hartman <gregkh@linuxfoundation.org>
