[PATCH v3 3/3] arm64: hw_breakpoint: Save privilege of access control via ptrace

[Tiezhu Yang <yangtiezhu@loongson.cn>]

In the current code, decode_ctrl_reg() saves the privilege of access
control passed by the ptrace user data, but it is not used anymore,
arch_build_bp_info() checks whether bp virtual address is in kernel
space to construct hw->ctrl.privilege, it seems not reasonable.

The value of ctrl->privilege saved in decode_ctrl_reg() can be used
in arch_build_bp_info(), there is no need to check bp virtual address
to assign value for hw->ctrl.privilege, just make use of "bp_priv" in
the struct perf_event_attr to save the privilege of access control via
ptrace for hardware breakpoint.
