arm64: hw_breakpoint: fix watchpoint matching for tagged pointers
commit 7dcd9dd8cebe9fa626af7e2358d03a37041a70fb upstream. This backport has a small difference from the upstream commit: - The address tag is removed in watchpoint_handler() instead of get_distance_from_watchpoint(), because 4.9 does not have commit fdfeff0f9e3d ("arm64: hw_breakpoint: Handle inexact watchpoint addresses"). Original patch description: When we take a watchpoint exception, the address that triggered the watchpoint is found in FAR_EL1. We compare it to the address of each configured watchpoint to see which one was hit. The configured watchpoint addresses are untagged, while the address in FAR_EL1 will have an address tag if the data access was done using a tagged address. The tag needs to be removed to compare the address to the watchpoints. Currently we don't remove it, and as a result can report the wrong watchpoint as being hit (specifically, always either the highest TTBR0 watchpoint or lowest TTBR1 watchpoint). This patch removes the tag.
