When kgdboc is compiled as a module all of the "ekgdboc" and "kgdb_earlycon" code isn't useful and, in fact, breaks compilation. This is because early_param() isn't defined for modules and that's how this code gets configured. It turns out that this was broken by commiteae3e19ca9("kgdboc: Remove useless #ifdef CONFIG_KGDB_SERIAL_CONSOLE in kgdboc") and then made worse by commit220995622d("kgdboc: Add kgdboc_earlycon to support early kgdb using boot consoles"). I guess the #ifdef wasn't so useless, even if it wasn't obvious why it was useful. When kgdboc was compiled as a module only "CONFIG_KGDB_SERIAL_CONSOLE_MODULE" was defined, not "CONFIG_KGDB_SERIAL_CONSOLE". That meant that the old module. Let's basically do the same thing that the old code (pre-removal of the #ifdef) did but use "IS_BUILTIN(CONFIG_KGDB_SERIAL_CONSOLE)" to make it more obvious what the point of the check is. We'll fix kgdboc_earlycon in a similar way.

Linux kernel
============
There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can
be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read
Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first.
In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``. The formatted documentation can also be read online at:
https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/
There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation.
Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the
requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about
the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
