4.9-stable review patch.  If anyone has any objections, please let me know.

------------------

From: Wentao Wang <witallwang@gmail.com>

commit 3ec8002951ea173e24b466df1ea98c56b7920e63 upstream.

Echo "" to /sys/module/kgdboc/parameters/kgdboc will fail with "No such
device” error.

This is caused by function "configure_kgdboc" who init err to ENODEV
when the config is empty (legal input) the code go out with ENODEV
returned.
