This will completely disable xmon when combined with 69393cb03ccd
("powerpc/xmon: Restrict when kernel is locked down"). I don't
personally have a problem with this, but I think not disabling xmon has
come up before as a requirement of some developers.
Is forcing integrity not sufficient? What confidential data held by the
skiroot kernel are you trying to protect? If you just force integrity
you'll get xmon in read-only mode, which should be fine for most
debugging...
