Esteemed kernel hackers,

To follow is my fifth pass at MIPS watch register support.

The differences from the previous version: 
http://www.linux-mips.org/cgi-bin/mesg.cgi?a=linux-mips&i=48C8ADEF.9020305%40avtrex.com

* Respun against linux-queue.

* Clear the WP bit in cause register on watch exception.

The corresponding GDB patch is here:

http://sourceware.org/ml/gdb-patches/2008-09/msg00230.html

Six patches to follow.

Thanks
David Daney
