Will Deacon [1] has some question on patch [2]. This patch improves
test__bp_signal so we can test:

1. A watchpoint and a breakpoint that fire on the same instruction
2. Nested signals

Test result:

On x86_64 and ARM64 (result are similar with patch [2] on ARM64):

# ./perf test -v signal
17: Test breakpoint overflow signal handler :
--- start ---
test child forked, pid 10213
count1 1, count2 3, count3 2, overflow 3, overflows_2 3
test child finished with 0
---- end ----
Test breakpoint overflow signal handler: Ok

So at least 2 cases Will doubted are handled correctly.

Will, are you ok with this one? Can I have an Acked-by or better,
Tested-by for the AARCH64 base?

Patch [2] is still in question. On AArch64 this test will fail even
without this patch.

Thank you.
