In order to run "gdb -k /kernel /dev/mem" on a smp kernel, you need the
following [crude, ugly, bogus, etc] patches:

I've been using these hacks for a while, even though they're not exactly
correct, but they work for simple stuff (eg: read/modify data). They
adapt to the style of kernel, so these patches will work on both kernels
if you are flipping back and forward from smp kernels like I am.
