[PATCH 2/2] ARM: hw_breakpoint: reset control registers in hotplug path

The ARMv7 debug architecture doesn't make any guarantees about the
contents of debug control registers following a debug logic reset.
This patch ensures that we reset the control registers when a cpu
comes ONLINE (for example, with hotplug) so that when we enable
monitor mode while inserting a breakpoint we won't exhibit random
behaviour.
