[PATCH v8 03/30] powerpc/xmon: Move breakpoints to text section

The instructions for xmon's breakpoint are stored bpt_table[] which is in
the data section. This is problematic as the data section may be marked
as no execute. Move bpt_table[] to the text section.

v6: - New to series. Was part of the previous patch.
    - Make BPT_SIZE available in assembly
