This patchset adds support of hardware breakpoints and watchpoints
in RISC-V architecture. The framework is built on top of perf subsystem and
SBI debug trigger extension.

Currently following features are not supported and are in works:
 - Ptrace support
 - Single stepping
 - Virtualization of debug triggers

The SBI debug trigger extension proposal (Draft v6) can be found at:
https://lists.riscv.org/g/sig-hypervisors/message/361

The Sdtrig ISA is part of RISC-V debug specification which can be
found at:
https://github.com/riscv/riscv-debug-spec
