Subject: kgdb: could not write to the last of valid memory with kgdb
X-Git-Url: https://git.karo-electronics.de/?a=commitdiff_plain;h=18d6522b86d21a04c8ac1ea79747e2e434a956d9;p=linux-beck.git

kgdb: could not write to the last of valid memory with kgdb

On the ARM architecture, kgdb will crash the kernel if the last byte
of valid memory is written due to a flush_icache_range flushing
beyond the memory boundary.
