Subject[PATCH 1/2] powerpc/hw_breakpoint: move instruction stepping out of hw_breakpoint_handler()
Date
From: Christophe Leroy <christophe.leroy@c-s.fr>

On 8xx, breakpoints stop after executing the instruction, so
stepping/emulation is not needed. Move it into a sub-function and
remove the #ifdefs.
