[PATCH 4/4] hw-breakpoints: Wrap in the KVM breakpoint active state check

From: Frederic Weisbecker
Date: Tue Nov 10 2009 - 05:26:44 EST


Wrap in the cpu dr7 check that tells if we have active
breakpoints that need to be restored in the cpu.

This wrapper makes the check more self-explainable and also
reusable for any further other uses.
