As I understood things the bug was in earlycon rather then kgdb.

It was picked up by the kgdbtest suite since kgdb does some cool things
with earlycon (thanks to Doug Anderson) so I added a few earlycon tests
to the kgdbtest suite. However it wasn't kgdb itself that failed here.

So... if you want to run https://gitlab.com/daniel-thompson/kgdbtest
then certainly feel free but its probably less effort just to include
a couple of earlycon checks in your testing.


Daniel.
