POWER10 DD1 has an issue where it generates watchpoint exceptions when
it shouldn't. The conditions where this occur are:

 - octword op
 - ending address of DAWR range is less than starting address of op
 - those addresses need to be in the same or in two consecutive 512B
   blocks
 - 'op address + 64B' generates an address that has a carry into bit
   52 (crosses 2K boundary)

[...]
Applied to powerpc/next.
