[PATCH 4/8] kgdb: COPTIMIZE flag

[jason.wessel@windriver.com]

From: Jason Wessel <jason.wessel@windriver.com>

This patch adds in the ability to unoptimize a single kernel module to
make source stepping more linear and not optimize out variables that
the developer might like to inspect.  It used with adding
COPTIMIZE=-O0 to the build line when doing something like a single
kernel module only build.  Or you could use it to override the default
optimization level entirely.
