Subject: xtensa: clear all DBREAKC registers on start

From: Max Filippov <[email protected]>

commit 7de7ac785ae18a2cdc78d7560f48e3213d9ea0ab upstream.

There are XCHAL_NUM_DBREAK registers, clear them all.
This also fixes cryptic assembler error message with binutils 2.25 when XCHAL_NUM_DBREAK is 0:

as: out of memory allocating 18446744073709551575 bytes after a total of 495616 bytes
