[PATCH 1/3] riscv: kgdb: use patch_insn_write() to set breakpoints

["Clément Léger" <clement.leger@linux.dev>]

When using CONFIG_STRICT_KERNEL_RWX, the text section is not writable
and copy_to_kernel_nofault() returns -EFAULT. Fix this by using
patch_insn_write() were applicable and implement
kgdb_arch_set_breakpoint()/kgdb_arch_remove_breakpoint().

patch_insn_write() correctly remaps the text as writable using a fixmap
alias.
