[RFC] support -b <baudrate> when starting gdb

[Adrian Chadd]

Hi,

There doesn't seem to be a blessed way to set the baudrate from inside
gdb/kgdb. It seems to be set from '-b' on the command line.

However kgdb doesn't have this support.

This patch adds -b support so kgdb so I can override the default speed
(9600 it seems) to speak kgdb over serial to a 115200 console MIPS
device.

The MIPS stuff has other issues; I'll talk about those later.

Thanks,



Adrian
