Subject: [PATCH v2 1/2] x86/hw_breakpoint: Unify breakpoint install/uninstall

Consolidate breakpoint management to reduce code duplication.
The diffstat was misleading, so the stripped code size is compared instead.
After refactoring, it is reduced from 11976 bytes to 11448 bytes on my x86_64
system built with clang.This also makes it easier to introduce
arch_reinstall_hw_breakpoint().

Also, add <linux/types.h> to the header file to fix a missing build dependency.

changes:
- Inline enable parameter for setup_hwbp() in arch_manage_bp()
- move lockdep_assert_irqs_disabled() to arch_manage_bp to fast fail
- update comments to match the refactored functions
