+ * GDB assumes that we're a user process being debugged, so
+ * it will send us an SWI command to write into memory as the
+ * debug trap. When an SWI occurs, the next instruction addr is
+ * placed into R14_svc before jumping to the vector trap.
+ * This doesn't work for kernel debugging as we are already in SVC
+ * we would loose the kernel's LR, which is a bad thing. This
+ * is bad thing.
+ *
+ * By doing this as an undefined instruction trap, we force a mode
+ * switch from SVC to UND mode, allowing us to save full kernel state.
+ *
+ * We also define a KGDB_COMPILED_BREAK which can be used to compile
+ * in breakpoints. This is important for things like sysrq-G and for
+ * the initial breakpoint from trap_init().
+ *
+ * Note to ARM HW designers: Add real trap support like SH && PPC to
+ * make our lives much much simpler. :)

+ * fps: unused, 1 long word
+ * cpsr: 1 long word
+ *
+ * Even though f0-f7 and fps are not used, they need to be
+ * present in the registers sent for correct processing in
+ * the host-side gdb.
+ *
+ * In particular, it is crucial that CPSR is in the right place,
