As far as I can see, this is only of interest to debug-tool writers, not
application developers.

Only applies in ring 0, where these registers are writable. The
workaround is for a debugger to ignore phantom breakpoints being
triggered, not for the application to change.
W34, W56
I don't know about these two. The first one sounds exceedingly unlikely
to be triggered.
