This patch enables support for hardware instruction breakpoints
on POWER8 with the help of a new register CIABR (Completed
Instruction Address Breakpoint Register). With this patch, single
hardware instruction breakpoint can be added and cleared during
any active xmon debug session. This hardware based instruction
breakpoint mechanism works correctly along with the existing TRAP
based instruction breakpoints available on xmon.

Hey Michael,

Any updates on this patch ?
