kgdb patches for 6.7

Browse Source 
Just two patches for you this time!
 
  * During a panic, flush the console before entering kgdb. This makes
    things a little easier to comprehend, especially if an NMI backtrace
    was triggered on all CPUs just before we enter the panic routines.
  * Correcting a couple of misleading (a.k.a. plain wrong) comments.
