Ok, so that seems like general agreement for "we shouldn't compile out
case statements" which is something we should apply across the codebase
going forward.
For gdbsx_do_domctl() specifically, that's going to want to wait until
"[PATCH v5 0/6] Clean up common/arch split for debugger.h" has gone in,
but I don't anticipate any issues there.
