As far as I can tell this looks right. Specifically in kdb_stub() I
see that it needs "ks->ex_vector == 0" to get "reason" as
KDB_REASON_SSTEP.

I did really basic testing of this series as a whole and things that
used to be broken for me around stepping / going past breakpoints are
now fixed. I'll keep using it more, but it definitely feels like it
makes things happier.
