Naveen N. Rao 5d6a03ebc8 powerpc/hw_breakpoint: Only disable hw breakpoint if cpu supports it
We get the below warning if we try to use kexec on P9:
   kexec_core: Starting new kernel
   WARNING: CPU: 0 PID: 1223 at arch/powerpc/kernel/process.c:826 __set_breakpoint+0xb4/0x140
   [snip]
   NIP __set_breakpoint+0xb4/0x140
   LR  kexec_prepare_cpus_wait+0x58/0x150
   Call Trace:
     0xc0000000ee70fb20 (unreliable)
     0xc0000000ee70fb20

     kernel_kexec+0xd8/0xe0
     SyS_reboot+0x214/0x2c0
     system_call+0x58/0x6c

This happens since we are trying to clear hw breakpoint on POWER9,
though we don't have CPU_FTR_DAWR enabled. Guard __set_breakpoint()
within hw_breakpoint_disable() with ppc_breakpoint_available() to
address this.

README

Linux kernel
============

This file was moved to Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst

Please notice that there are several guides for kernel developers and users.
These guides can be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF.

In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``.

There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation.
See Documentation/00-INDEX for a list of what is contained in each file.

Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the
requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about
the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
