Introduce tests to cover simple scenarios where user is watching memory which can be accessed by kernel as well. We also support _MODE_EXACT with _SETHWDEBUG interface. Move those testcases outside of _BP_RANGE condition. This will help to test _MODE_EXACT scenarios when CONFIG_HAVE_HW_BREAKPOINT is not set, eg: $ ./ptrace-hwbreak ...

Linux kernel
============
There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can
be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read
Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first.
In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``. The formatted documentation can also be read online at:
https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/
There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation.
Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the
requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about
the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
