Hi!

I would like to publish two debug features which were needed for other stuff
I work on.

One is the reworked lx-symbols script which now actually works on at least
gdb 9.1 (gdb 9.2 was reported to fail to load the debug symbols from the kernel
for some reason, not related to this patch) and upstream qemu.

Queued patches 2-5 for now. 6 is okay but it needs a selftest. (e.g.
using KVM_VCPU_SET_EVENTS) and the correct name for the constant.
Do you mean to add a kvm-unit-test or to add a test to kernel's kvm unit tests
for this?

selftests is used for those in the kernel. "Unit test" can mean both, but usually it means kvm-unit-tests because they're easier to write.
