[PATCH] [POWERPC] Make Book-E debug handling SMP safe

global_dbcr0 needs to be a per cpu set of save areas instead of a single
global on all processors.

Also, we switch to using DBCR0_IDM to determine if the user space app is
being debugged as its a more consistent way.  In the future we should
support features like hardware breakpoint and watchpoints which will
have DBCR0_IDM set but not necessarily DBCR0_IC (single step).

Paul, you wrote the original code here so please take a look at this.
