x86/debug: Prevent data breakpoints on cpu_dr7
local_db_save() is called at the start of exc_debug_kernel(), reads DR7 and disables breakpoints to prevent recursion. When running in a guest (X86_FEATURE_HYPERVISOR), local_db_save() reads the per-cpu variable cpu_dr7 to check whether a breakpoint is active or not before it accesses DR7. A data breakpoint on cpu_dr7 therefore results in infinite #DB recursion. Disallow data breakpoints on cpu_dr7 to prevent that.
