x86/debug: Support negative polarity DR6 bits

DR6 has a whole bunch of bits that have negative polarity; they were
architecturally reserved and defined to be 1 and are now getting used.
Since they're 1 by default, 0 becomes the signal value.

Handle this by xor'ing the read DR6 value by the reserved mask, this
will flip them around such that 1 is the signal value (positive
polarity).

Current Linux doesn't yet support any of these bits, but there's two
defined:

 - DR6[11] Bus Lock Debug Exception		(ISEr39)
 - DR6[16] Restricted Transactional Memory	(SDM)

Update ptrace_{set,get}_debugreg() to provide/consume the value in
architectural polarity. Although afaict ptrace_set_debugreg(6) is
pointless, the value is not consumed anywhere.

Change hw_breakpoint_restore() to alway write the DR6_RESERVED value
to DR6, again, no consumer for that write.
