    kgdb,debug_core: pass the breakpoint struct instead of address and memory · 98b54aa1

    There is extra state information that needs to be exposed in the
    kgdb_bpt structure for tracking how a breakpoint was installed.  The
    debug_core only uses the the probe_kernel_write() to install
    breakpoints, but this is not enough for all the archs.  Some arch such
    as x86 need to use text_poke() in order to install a breakpoint into a
    read only page.
    
    Passing the kgdb_bpt structure to kgdb_arch_set_breakpoint() and
    kgdb_arch_remove_breakpoint() allows other archs to set the type
    variable which indicates how the breakpoint was installed.
