I don't understand this logic, if we are enabling one of the w/b points
or if there was already an enabled w/b point, then we set the flag, but
if you disable a single one then you clear the flag?

It looks to me like you're mixing two approaches here;  either read
through all the registers whenever you need to know to set the flag or
not, or you keep track of this on every read/write of the registers.
I did it in the function guest_debug_in_use(), which will read through all the
registers.

So __trap_debug32 is for the non-control registers and trap-debug32 is
for the control registers?

I think specifically naming the control register function
trap_debug_cr would be cleaner in that case.
OK.
