====================
sparc32: kgdb_32 and STRICT_MM_TYPECHECKS updates

A few cosmetic pathes for sparc32 follows.
I noticed some inconsistency in kgdb_32 that triggered a few patches.
The inconsistency in kgdb_32 turned out to have no functional impact.
But I anyway fixed it so kgdb_32 and kgdb_64 became just a tiny
bit more alike.

The STRICT_MM_TYPECHECKS patch was triggered by a
discussion on linux-arch where Arnd considered removing
this cruft.
The resulting benary of srmmu.c (I checked an assembler file)
was _smaller_ when I defined STRICT_MM_TYPECHECKS.
But due to lack of testing I left it undefined.
With the build errors fixed it should be trivial to
try out if defining STRICT_MM_TYPECHECKS breaks anything.

Any takers?

As I miss any working sparc32 gear for the moment this
has only been build tested - so please consider if it
is worth taking the risk to apply the patches.
