__setup() handlers should return 1 to obsolete_checksetup() in
init/main.c to indicate that the boot option has been handled.
A return of 0 causes the boot option/value to be listed as an Unknown
kernel parameter and added to init's (limited) environment strings.
So return 1 from kgdboc_option_setup().
Unknown kernel command line parameters "BOOT_IMAGE=/boot/bzImage-517rc7
kgdboc=kbd kgdbts=", will be passed to user space.
Run /sbin/init as init process
with arguments:
/sbin/init
with environment:
HOME=/
TERM=linux
BOOT_IMAGE=/boot/bzImage-517rc7
kgdboc=kbd
kgdbts=
Fixes: 1bd54d851f50 ("kgdboc: Passing ekgdboc to command line causes panic")
Fixes: f2d937f3bf00 ("consoles: polling support, kgdboc")
