Dave Hansen d1a1dc0be8 consolidate per-arch stack overflow debugging options
Original posting:

	http://lkml.kernel.org/r/20121214184202.F54094D9@kernel.stglabs.ibm.com

Several architectures have similar stack debugging config options.
They all pretty much do the same thing, some with slightly
differing help text.

This patch changes the architectures to instead enable a Kconfig
boolean, and then use that boolean in the generic Kconfig.debug
to present the actual menu option.  This removes a bunch of
duplication and adds consistency across arches.

Write kernel log output directly via the hypervisor console.
This is useful for kernel debugging when your machine crashes very
early before the console code is initialized. For normal operation
it is not recommended because it looks ugly and doesn't cooperate
with klogd/syslogd. You should normally N here,
unless you want to debug such a crash.

help
Debug info can be large, and flags like
`-femit-struct-debug-baseonly' can reduce the kernel file
size and build time noticeably. Such flags are often
helpful if the main use of debug info is line number info.
