[PATCH v2 08/13] powerpc/hw_breakpoint: Avoid relying on caller synchronization

[Marco Elver]

Internal data structures (cpu_bps, task_bps) of powerpc's hw_breakpoint
implementation have relied on nr_bp_mutex serializing access to them.

Before overhauling synchronization of kernel/events/hw_breakpoint.c,
introduce 2 spinlocks to synchronize cpu_bps and task_bps respectively,
thus avoiding reliance on callers synchronizing powerpc's hw_breakpoint.
