Some versions of gcc replace calls to strstr() with single-character
"needle" string parameters by calls to strchr() behind our back.
This causes linking errors if strchr() is defined as an inline function
in <asm/string.h> (e.g. on m68k, which BTW doesn't have kgdb support).
Prevent this by explicitly calling strchr() instead.

This is the single remaining case where strstr() is used with a
single-character needle. Cfr.

I think the patch is fine and I will accept it into the kgdb tree for
pushing to Linus, but I did have a question.
How did the kgdbts.o end up getting compiled on m68k if there is no kgdb
support on m68k?
CONFIG_KGDB_TESTS should not be able to be set if there is no
CONFIG_KGDB set.
Thanks,
Jason.

It didn't. I was just grepping for the problematic strstr() case.
