powerpc/watchpoints: Disable preemption in thread_change_pc()

thread_change_pc() uses CPU local data, so must be protected from
swapping CPUs while it is reading the breakpoint struct.

The error is more noticeable after 1e60f3564bad ("powerpc/watchpoints:
Track perf single step directly on the breakpoint"), which added an
unconditional __this_cpu_read() call in thread_change_pc(). However the
existing __this_cpu_read() that runs if a breakpoint does need to be
re-inserted has the same issue.

powerpc/watchpoints: Remove ptrace/perf exclusion tracking

ptrace and perf watchpoints were considered incompatible in
commit 29da4f91c0c1 ("powerpc/watchpoint: Don't allow concurrent perf
and ptrace events"), but the logic in that commit doesn't really apply.

Ptrace doesn't automatically single step; the ptracer must request this
explicitly. And the ptracer can do so regardless of whether a
ptrace/perf watchpoint triggered or not: it could single step every
instruction if it wanted to. Whatever stopped the ptracee before
executing the instruction that would trigger the perf watchpoint is no
longer relevant by this point.

To get correct behaviour when perf and ptrace are watching the same
data we must ignore the perf watchpoint. After all, ptrace has
before-execute semantics, and perf is after-execute, so perf doesn't
actually care about the watchpoint trigger at this point in time.
Pausing before execution does not mean we will actually end up executing
the instruction.

Importantly though, we don't remove the perf watchpoint yet. This is
key.

The ptracer is free to do whatever it likes right now. E.g., it can
continue the process, single step. or even set the child PC somewhere
completely different.

If it does try to execute the instruction though, without reinserting
the watchpoint (in which case we go back to the start of this example),
the perf watchpoint would immediately trigger. This time there is no
ptrace watchpoint, so we can safely perform a single step and increment
the perf counter. Upon receiving the single step exception, the existing
code already handles propagating or consuming it based on whether
another subsystem (e.g. ptrace) requested a single step. Again, this is
needed with or without perf/ptrace exclusion, because ptrace could be
single stepping this instruction regardless of if a watchpoint is
involved.

powerpc/watchpoints: Track perf single step directly on the breakpoint

There is a bug in the current watchpoint tracking logic, where the
teardown in arch_unregister_hw_breakpoint() uses bp->ctx->task, which it
does not have a reference of and parallel threads may be in the process
of destroying. This was partially addressed in commit fb822e6076d9
("powerpc/hw_breakpoint: Fix oops when destroying hw_breakpoint event"),
but the underlying issue of accessing a struct member in an unknown
state still remained. Syzkaller managed to trigger a null pointer
derefernce due to the race between the task destructor and checking the
pointer and dereferencing it in the loop.

While this null pointer dereference could be fixed by using READ_ONCE
to access the task up front, that just changes the error to manipulating
possbily freed memory.

Instead, the breakpoint logic needs to be reworked to remove any
dependency on a context or task struct during breakpoint removal.

The reason we have this currently is to clear thread.last_hit_ubp. This
member is used to differentiate the perf DAWR single-step sequence from
other causes of single-step, such as userspace just calling
ptrace(PTRACE_SINGLESTEP, ...). We need to differentiate them because,
when the single step interrupt is received, we need to know whether to
re-insert the DAWR breakpoint (perf) or not (ptrace / other).

arch_unregister_hw_breakpoint() needs to clear this information to
prevent dangling pointers to possibly freed memory. These pointers are
dereferenced in single_step_dabr_instruction() without a way to check
their validity.

This patch moves the tracking of this information to the breakpoint
itself. This means we no longer have to do anything special to clean up.

powerpc/watchpoints: Don't track info persistently

info is cheap to retrieve, and is likely optimised by the compiler
anyway. On the other hand, propagating it across the functions makes it
possible to be inconsistent and adds needless complexity.

Remove it, and invoke counter_arch_bp() when we need to work with it.

As we don't persist it, we just use the local bp array to track whether
we are ignoring a breakpoint.
