[PATCH v12 00/28] Add gdb python scripts as kernel debugging helpers

[Jan Kiszka]

Hi Andrew,

this is an update to address the review comments provided by Michal
Marek on v11.

Changes since v11:
 - drop redundant subdir rule
 - fold *.pyo into existing clean-files rules

See http://lkml.indiana.edu/hypermail/linux/kernel/1210.0/01598.html for
the original description and

    git://git.kiszka.org/linux.git queues/gdb-scripts

for the latest version.
