[PATCH] KGDB: add smp_mb() in synchronisation during exception handler exit
KGDB uses atomic variables and busy-wait loops to co-ordinate between multiple CPUs on an SMP system. When an exception is handled, the primary CPU executes kgdb_handle_exception() whilst the others execute kgdb_wait. There comes a point when the waiters are waiting for the primary CPU to finish: /* Wait till ... 9 Mar 2010 13:30
