On a board using qcom_geni_serial I found that I could no longer
interact with kdb if I got a crash after the "agetty" running on the
same serial port was killed. This meant that various classes of
crashes that happened at reboot time were undebuggable.
Reading through the code, I couldn't figure out why qcom_geni_serial
felt the need to run so much code at port shutdown time. All we need
to do is disable the interrupt.
After I make this change then a hardcoded kgdb_breakpoint in some late
shutdown code now allows me to interact with the debugger. I also
could freely close / re-open the port without problems.

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.
