+	  This is a kgdb I/O module specifically designed to test
+	  kgdb's internal functions.  This kgdb I/O module is
+	  intended to for the development of new kgdb stubs
+	  as well as regression testing the kgdb internals.
+	  See the drivers/misc/kgdbts.c for the details about
+	  the tests.  The most basic of this I/O module is to boot
