Can you share the defconfig and qemu boot lines used for testing.

I'd like to see if they can easily be integrated into kgdbtest. Normally
figuring out the qemu boot line is the hardest bit of adding support for
an architecture one is not familar with.


Daniel.


PS At the moment it helps kgdbtest a lot if qemu is configured with two
   serial ports but I really should get round to relaxing that!
