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.

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

Changes v1->v2:

   Moved the debug instruction #def to kvm_book3s.h. This way PR_KVM
can also share it.
   Added code to use KVM get one reg infrastructure to get debug opcode.
   Updated emulate.c to include emulation of debug instruction incase
of PR_KVM.
   Made changes to commit message.

This will still break with LE guests.

I am told to try with all 0s opcode. So rewriting the patch.

The problem with "all 0s" is that it's reasonably likely to occur on real world code. Hence Segher was proposing something like 0x00dddd00 which should be the same regardless of endianness, but has a certain appeal of intentional placement ;).

Phew - why can't we just go into the normal instruction emulator for
EMUL_ASSIST?

IIUC, using the emulation_assist_interrupt function (kernel/trap.c) ?

I was more thinking of kvmppc_emulate_instruction() :).
