For starters, you can get the kdb patch for any of Linus' kernels from
oss.sgi.com/projects/kdb, to back that out of XFS CVS (possibly with a
conflict or two).

Alternatively, look in the testing/Release-1.0.1/patches directory on
the XFS ftp site, this actually has some patches broken down into
xfs-only, lvm, kdb, etc.  These patches reflect the state of CVS about
2-3 weeks ago.
