Merge window opens, kgdb mergedMerge window opens, kgdb merged

The 2.6.26 merge window has opened; one of the first things to go in was the massive x86 tree. What really caught your editor's attention, though, was the merging of kgdb for the x86 architecture. Linus Torvalds's aversion to debuggers has kept the mainline free of interactive debugger support (on x86, at least) since the beginning, forcing developers wanting debugging support to apply external patches. That will finally change in 2.6.26.
