Instead of using flat array of longs use normal C structure and generate
EXC_TABLE_* constants in the asm-offsets.c

The implementation is adopted from the ARM arch. GCC 7.3, 8 or newer is
required for building the xtensa kernel with SSP.

<title>xtensa: support hardware breakpoints/watchpoints</title>

Use perf framework to manage hardware instruction and data breakpoints.
Add two new ptrace calls: PTRACE_GETHBPREGS and PTRACE_SETHBPREGS to
query and set instruction and data breakpoints.
Address bit 0 choose instruction (0) or data (1) break register, bits
31..1 are the register number.
Both calls transfer two 32-bit words: address (0) and control (1).
Instruction breakpoint contorl word is 0 to clear breakpoint, 1 to set.
Data breakpoint control word bit 31 is 'trigger on store', bit 30 is
'trigger on load, bits 29..0 are length. Length 0 is used to clear a
breakpoint. To set a breakpoint length must be a power of 2 in the range
1..64 and the address must be length-aligned.

Introduce new thread_info flag: TIF_DB_DISABLED. Set it if debug
exception is raised by the kernel code accessing watched userspace
address and disable corresponding data breakpoint. On exit to userspace
check that flag and, if set, restore all data breakpoints.

Handle debug exceptions raised with PS.EXCM set. This may happen when
window overflow/underflow handler or fast exception handler hits data
breakpoint, in which case save and disable all data breakpoints,
single-step faulting instruction and restore data breakpoints.

<title>xtensa: use context structure for debug exceptions</title>

With implementation of data breakpoints debug exceptions raised when
PS.EXCM is set need to be handled, e.g. window overflow code can write
to watched userspace address. Currently debug exception handler uses
EXCSAVE and DEPC SRs to save temporary registers, but DEPC may not be
available when PS.EXCM is set and more space will be needed to save
additional state.
Reorganize debug context: create per-CPU structure debug_table instance
and store its address in the EXCSAVE&lt;debug level&gt; instead of
debug_exception function address. Expand this structure when more save
space is needed.

The Xtensa architecture provides a global register called THREADPTR
for the purpose of Thread Local Storage (TLS) support. This allows us
to use a fairly simple implementation, keeping the thread pointer in
the regset and simply saving and restoring it upon entering/exiting
the from user space.
