Currently we are getting:
 arch/powerpc/kernel/kgdb.c: In function 'kgdb_arch_exit':
 arch/powerpc/kernel/kgdb.c:492:2: error: '__debugger_breakx_match' undeclared (first use in this function)
 arch/powerpc/kernel/kgdb.c:492:2: note: each undeclared identifier is reported only once for each function it appears in

Fix the typo.

This is a rewrite so that we don't assume we are using the DABR throughout the
code.  We now use the arch_hw_breakpoint to store the breakpoint in a generic
manner in the thread_struct, rather than storing the raw DABR value.

The ptrace GET/SET_DEBUGREG interface currently passes the raw DABR in from
userspace.  We keep this functionality, so that future changes (like the POWER8
DAWR), will still fake the DABR to userspace.

For powerpc BooKE and e200, singlestep is handled on the critical/dbg
exception stack. This causes current_thread_info() to fail for kgdb
internal, so previously We work around this issue by copying
the thread_info from the kernel stack before calling kgdb_handle_exception,
and copying it back afterwards.

But actually we don't do this properly. We should backup current_thread_info
then restore that when exit.

We need to skip a breakpoint exception when it occurs after
a breakpoint has already been removed.

The kgdb_single_step flag has the possibility to indefinitely
hang the system on an SMP system.

The x86 arch have the same problem, and that problem was fixed by
commit 8097551d9ab9b9e3630(kgdb,x86: do not set kgdb_single_step
on x86). This patch does the same behaviors as x86's patch.
