[PATCH v5 2/8] powerpc/watchpoint: Fix handling of vector instructions

From: Ravi Bangoria
Date: Tue Aug 25 2020 - 00:37:26 EST


Vector instructions are special because they are always aligned.
Thus unaligned EA needs to be aligned down before comparing it
with watch ranges. Otherwise we might consider valid event as
invalid.

Fixes: 74c6881019b7 ("powerpc/watchpoint: Prepare handler to handle more than one watchpoint")
