[Pkg-uml-pkgs] Bug#676184: user-mode-linux: gdbserver not usable inside UML

[Vincent Bernat]

Package: user-mode-linux
Version: 3.2-1um-1
Severity: normal
Tags: patch

Hi!

Using gdbserver  inside an UML  instance displays "Couldn't  write debug
register". I have discovered this  patch from Barry Friedman which works
fine for me:

I also attach a version rebased for Linux 3.2.
