The last I checked, I knew that the version of patchset I sent out
(linuxppc-dev message id: 20100629165152.GA8586@in.ibm.com)
didn't actually work when tested on hardware (it was just compile tested
before sending). It needs substantial amount of time to get it in shape,
which I'm unfortunately lacking now (plenty of priority items in hand that
needs dedicated attention).
Thanks,
K.Prasad
Fix the error in spelling the config option for hw-breakpoints and fix
the build issue that follows.
