[GIT PULL v3] hw-breakpoints: Rewrite on top of perf events

[Frederic Weisbecker <fweisbec@gmail.com>]

Hi all,

This is the v3 of the hw-breakpoints API rewrite on top of perf events.
You can find the previous version here:
http://lwn.net/Articles/358594/

Changes in v3:

    - Fix broken CONFIG_KVM, propagate the breakpoint api
      changes to kvm when we exit the guest and restore the bp registers
      to the host. The only change is in the 4th patch.

Changes in v2:

    - Follow the perf "event " rename
    - The ptrace regression have been fixed (ptrace breakpoint perf events
      weren't released when a task ended)
    - Drop the struct hw_breakpoint and store generic fields in
      perf_event_attr.
    - Separate core and arch specific headers, drop
      asm-generic/hw_breakpoint.h and create linux/hw_breakpoint.h
    - Use new generic len/type for breakpoint
    - Handle off case: when breakpoints api is not supported by an arch
    - Use proper in-kernel perf api provided by Arjan.
