I have the final version ready for a pull request that I was going to
make in the next hour or two that is fully regression tested.

If you would prefer to these changes in the PPC, let me know, or if
you want to ack the patch, I'll add that before submitting the pull
request.

Thanks,
Jason.

Subject: [PATCH 4/4] kgdb: Fix regression in evr register handling

Commit ff10b88b5a05c8f1646dd15fb9f6093c1384ff6d (kgdb,ppc: Individual
register get/set for ppc) introduced a problem where memcpy was used
incorrectly to read and write the evr registers with a kernel that
has:

CONFIG_FSL_BOOKE=y
CONFIG_SPE=y
CONFIG_KGDB=y

This patch also fixes the following compilation problems:

arch/powerpc/kernel/kgdb.c: In function 'dbg_get_reg':
arch/powerpc/kernel/kgdb.c:341: error: passing argument 2 of 'memcpy' makes pointer from integer without a cast
arch/powerpc/kernel/kgdb.c: In function 'dbg_set_reg':
arch/powerpc/kernel/kgdb.c:366: error: passing argument 1 of 'memcpy' makes pointer from integer without a cast
