The guest debug is not available yet but it will be based on RISC-V HW debug
support (i.e. Sdtrig and SBI Debug Trigger extension).

Both Sdtrig and SBI Debug Trigger extensions are in draft state and undergoing
PoC work. Once this is done, we will first get hw_breakpoint support
in arch/riscv
and after that we will have KVM_SET_GUEST_DEBUG supported by KVM RISC-V.
