[PATCH] powerpc/kvm: support to handle sw breakpoint

[Madhavan Srinivasan <maddy@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx>]

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 mandates use of "abs" instruction
(primary opcode 31 and extended opcode 360) as sw breakpoint instruction.
Based on PowerISA v2.01, ABS instruction has been dropped from the architecture
and treated an illegal instruction.
