x86/mpx: Trace #BR exceptions
This is the first in a series of MPX tracing patches.
I've found these extremely useful in the process of
debugging applications and the kernel code itself.
This exception hooks in to the bounds (#BR) exception
very early and allows capturing the key registers which
would influence how the exception is handled.
Note that bndcfgu/bndstatus are technically still
64-bit registers even in 32-bit mode.
