a0415e82f0 Remove references to first-person pronouns ("I", "me", etc.): all they 
do is serve to confuse the reader (who is this "I"?).  Stuff inside
<question> tags in the mini-faq's and clearly-attributed blocks was
left alone.

a43d4233ca Update the description of how to load modules in gdb, and separate it from 
the section on remote debugging since it also applies to crash dumps.  Thanks
to grog for his gdb macros, which pointed me in the right direction.

48531a3b88 GDB now needs an explicit `-k' option to switch to kernel debugging mode. The 
tactic of invoking GDB under the name of `kgdb' has not worked for a while.
Correct the `Kernel Debugging' chapter of the Handbook to reflect this change.
