Current implementation allows single stepping into interrupt handlers for interrupts that were received during single stepping. But interrupt handlers aren't something that the user expect to debug. Moreover single stepping interrupt handlers is risky as it may sometimes leads to unbalanced locking when we resume from single-step debug.
Fix broken single-step implementation via skipping single-step over interrupt handlers. The methodology is when we receive an interrupt from EL1, check if we are single stepping (pstate.SS). If yes then we save MDSCR_EL1.SS and clear the register bit if it was set. Then unmask only D and leave I set. On return from the interrupt, set D and restore MDSCR_EL1.SS. Along with this skip reschedule if we were stepping.
