kdb: Fix early debugging crash regression

jwessel · jwessel · commit 578bd4dfcda6 · 2010-10-29T13:14:41.000-05:00
The kdb_current legally be equal to NULL in the early boot of the x86
arch.  The problem pcan be observed by booting with the kernel arguments:

    earlyprintk=vga ekgdboc=kbd kgdbwait

The kdb shell will oops on entry and recursively fault because it
cannot get past the final stage of shell initialization.
