Many a times, the requested breakpoint length can be less than the fixed breakpoint length i.e. 8 bytes supported by PowerPC 64-bit server (Book III S) processors. This could lead to extraneous interrupts resulting in false breakpoint notifications. This detects and discards such interrupts for non-ptrace requests. We don't change ptrace behaviour to avoid breaking compatability.
