ARM: 6357/1: hw-breakpoint: add new ptrace requests for hw-breakpoint interaction
For debuggers to take advantage of the hw-breakpoint framework in the kernel, it is necessary to expose the API calls via a ptrace interface. This patch exposes the hardware breakpoints framework as a collection of virtual registers, accesible using PTRACE_SETHBPREGS and PTRACE_GETHBPREGS requests. The breakpoints are stored in the debug_info struct of the running thread. Cc: Frederic Weisbecker <fweisbec@gmail.com> Cc: S.
