Christophe Leroy 39413ae009 powerpc/hw_breakpoints: Rewrite 8xx breakpoints to allow any address range size.
Unlike standard powerpc, Powerpc 8xx doesn't have SPRN_DABR, but
it has a breakpoint support based on a set of comparators which
allow more flexibility.

Commit 4ad8622dc5 ("powerpc/8xx: Implement hw_breakpoint")
implemented breakpoints by emulating the DABR behaviour. It did
this by setting one comparator the match 4 bytes at breakpoint address
and the other comparator to match 4 bytes at breakpoint address + 4.

Rewrite 8xx hw_breakpoint to make breakpoints match all addresses
defined by the breakpoint address and length by making full use of
comparators.

Now, comparator E is set to match any address greater than breakpoint
address minus one. Comparator F is set to match any address lower than
breakpoint address plus breakpoint length. Addresses are aligned
to 32 bits.

When the breakpoint range starts at address 0, the breakpoint is set
to match comparator F only. When the breakpoint range end at address
0xffffffff, the breakpoint is set to match comparator E only.
Otherwise the breakpoint is set to match comparator E and F.

At the same time, use registers bit names instead of hardcoded values.

Linux kernel
============

There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can
be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read
Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first.

In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``.  The formatted documentation can also be read online at:

    https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/

There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation.

Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the
requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about
the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
