[PATCH v4 13/15] KVM: arm: keep track of guest use of the debug registers

We trap debug register accesses from guest all the time, and read the
BCR/WCR to indicate whether the guest has enabled any break/watch points
or not.

+ * We want to avoid world-switching all the DBG registers all the

+ *
+ * When we are about to run a guest, we have the following cases:

+ * 1) Neither the host nor the guest has configured any [WB]points
+ * 2) Only the host has configured any [WB]points
+ * 3) Only the guest has configured any [WB]points
+ * 4) Both the host and the guest have configured any [WB]points
+ *
+ * - In case (1), KVM should enable trapping and swtich the register
+ * state on guest accesses.
+ * - In cases (2), (3), and (4) we must switch the register state on each
+ * entry/exit.
+ *
+ * For ARMv7, if the CONFIG_HAVE_HW_BREAKPOINT is set, ARM_DSCR_MDBGEN
+ * is always set(ARM64 use it to indicate that debug registers are actively
+ * in use).
+ *
+ * - We add a function reading the break/watch control variables directly to
+ * indicate whether the host has enabled any break/watch points or not.
+ * We only call the function upon guest entry, after preempt_disable() and
+ * local_irq_disable(), so there is no race for it.
+ *
+ * - We trap debug register accesses from guest all the time, and read the
+ * BCR/WCR to indicate whether the guest has enabled any break/watch points
+ * or not.
+ *
+ * For this, we can keep track of the host/guest use of debug registers,
+ * and skip the save/restore dance when neither the host nor the guest has
+ * configured any [WB]points.
