[RFC][PATCH 2/5] hw-breakpoints: Pull up the target symbol in a generic field

[Frederic Weisbecker]

The target symbol of a breakpoint doesn't need to be arch specific.
It can be resolved back from the core, then this patch pulls
up this job to the core, avoiding the need to implement that from
arch.
