powerpc/kvm: support to handle sw breakpoint
This patch adds kernel side support for software breakpoint. Design is that, by using an illegal instruction, we trap to hypervisor via Emulation Assistance interrupt, where we check for the illegal instruction and accordingly we return to Host or Guest. Patch also adds support for software breakpoint in PR KVM. Signed-off-by: Madhavan Srinivasan <maddy@linux.vnet.ibm.com> Signed-off-by: Alexander Graf <agraf@suse.de>
