If you took a look at the alternate patch I sent in the 4 of 4 response, I made 
a modification for kdb to continue to work properly, namely disconnect and do 
not emit characters if we are in kdb mode.

I patched against what you originally had there.

Depending on what we come to agreement on with patches 2-4 in your series I'll 
fold the changes into the reboot notifier.

It is possible to have both the reboot notifier and the low level modifications 
to the arch specific reboot hooks as a final catch, but I am interested to see 
what you think about just using the reboot notifier.

Cheers,
Jason.
