x86: debugctlmsr arch_has_block_step
This implements user-mode step-until-branch on x86 using the BTF bit in MSR_IA32_DEBUGCTLMSR. It's just like single-step, only less so. Signed-off-by: Roland McGrath <roland@redhat.com> Signed-off-by: Ingo Molnar <mingo@elte.hu> Signed-off-by: Thomas Gleixner <tglx@linutronix.de>
