When QEMU watchpoint matches, that is not definitely an architectural
watchpoint match yet. If it is a stop-before-access watchpoint then that
is hardly possible to ignore it after throwing a TCG exception.

A special callback is introduced to check for architectural watchpoint
match before raising a TCG exception.

This looks OK to me, but there's one QOM CPU style question
I'd like Andreas's view on.

At least some of the QOM CPU methods have wrapper functions
(eg cpu_set_pc(), cpu_unaligned_access()) that just bundle up
the CPU_GET_CLASS and method invocation). Should new methods
like the debug_check_watchpoint() introduced by this patch have
that kind of wrapper function, or is it optional?

(There also seems to be a mix of "implement default/common
behaviour in a common method implementation" vs "implement
it in the wrapper function if the method pointer is NULL".
I think the former, as done in this patch, is probably nicer
but again would defer to Andreas.)

thanks

Andreas -- can I nudge you to say your preferences on whether
QOM CPU methods should have wrapper functions, please?
I think this patchset is otherwise ready to apply.

thanks

Andreas tells me on IRC that he doesn't insist on wrapper functions,
so I think this patch is fine as is.

thanks
