H A Dhw_breakpoint.cdiff cc879ab3ce39bc39f9b1d238b283f43a5f6f957d Tue Aug 29 01:34:55 CDT 2023 Benjamin Gray <bgray@linux.ibm.com> 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.
