kgdboc,keyboard: Keyboard driver for kdb with kgdb

Browse source 
This patch adds in the kdb PS/2 keyboard driver.  This was mostly a
direct port from the original kdb where I cleaned up the code against
checkpatch.pl and added the glue to stitch it into kgdb.

This patch also enables early kdb debug via kgdbwait and the keyboard.

All the access to configure kdb using either a serial console or the
keyboard is done via kgdboc.

If you want to use only the keyboard and want to break in early you
would add to your kernel command arguments:

    kgdboc=kbd kgdbwait

If you wanted serial and or the keyboard access you could use:

    kgdboc=kbd,ttyS0

You can also configure kgdboc as a kernel module or at run time with
the sysfs where you can activate and deactivate kgdb.

Turn it on:
    echo kbd,ttyS0 > /sys/module/kgdboc/parameters/kgdboc

Turn it off:
    echo "" > /sys/module/kgdboc/parameters/kgdboc
