kgdb: don't needlessly skip PAGE_USER test for Fsl booke
commit 56151e753468e34aeb322af4b0309ab727c97d2e upstream. The bypassing of this test is a leftover from 2.4 vintage kernels, and is no longer appropriate, or even used by KGDB. Currently KGDB uses probe_kernel_write() for all access to memory via the KGDB core, so it can simply be deleted. This fixes CVE-2010-1446.
