Hi Linus,

hw_breakpoint.c: fix INT1 recursion and system hard hang.
Fixes a 13 year old bug in the int1 handler path that results in a
hard system lockup is someone triggers an int1 breakpoint in the
hardware and no perf event has been registered. Prints a log message
and sets the resume flag in x86 and x86_64 to prevent the system from
locking up and gracefully prints a rate limited message.
