[PATCH AUTOSEL 5.9 005/147] powerpc/watchpoint/ptrace: Fix SETHWDEBUG when CONFIG_HAVE_HW_BREAKPOINT=N

[ Upstream commit 9b6b7c680cc20971444d9f836e49fc98848bcd0a ]
When kernel is compiled with CONFIG_HAVE_HW_BREAKPOINT=N, user can
still create watchpoint using PPC_PTRACE_SETHWDEBUG, with limited
functionalities. But, such watchpoints are never firing because of
the missing privilege settings. Fix that.
It's safe to set HW_BRK_TYPE_PRIV_ALL because we don't really leak
any kernel address in signal info. Setting HW_BRK_TYPE_PRIV_ALL will
also help to find scenarios when kernel accesses user memory.
