Instead of disabling only one watchpooint, get num of available
watchpoints dynamically and disable all of them.

I think this test should go into nr_wp_slots() which should return zero 
when no breakpoint is available. This would simplify at least here and 
patch 4

Seems possible. Will change it in next version.

Thanks,

Once we move ppc_breakpoint_available() logic into nr_wp_slots(),
'dawr_force_enable' variable is checked in nr_wp_slots() before
it gets initialized in dawr_force_setup():

     start_kernel()
     |-> perf_event_init()
     |     init_hw_breakpoint()
     |       hw_breakpoint_slots()
     |         nr_wp_slots()
     |           /* Check dawr_force_enable variable */
     |
     |-> arch_call_rest_init()
           rest_init()
             kernel_thread(kernel_init, ...)
               ...
                 kernel_init()
                   kernel_init_freeable()
                     ...
                     do_one_initcall()
                       dawr_force_setup()
                         /* Set dawr_force_enable = true */

Because of this, hw-breakpoint infrastructure is initialized with
no DAWRs. So I'm thinking to keep the code as it is i.e. not moving
ppc_breakpoint_available() test inside nr_wp_slots().
