hw_breakpoint: Fix cpu check in task_bp_pinned(cpu)
trinity fuzzer triggered WARN_ONCE("Can't find any breakpoint slot") in arch_install_hw_breakpoint() but the problem is not arch-specific.
The problem is, task_bp_pinned(cpu) checks "cpu == iter->cpu" but this doesn't account the "all cpus" events with iter->cpu < 0.
This means that, say, register_user_hw_breakpoint(tsk) can happily create the arbitrary number > HBP_NUM of breakpoints which can not be activated. toggle_bp_task_slot() is equally wrong by the same reason and nr_task_bp_pinned[] can have negative entries.
Simple test:
# perl -e 'sleep 1 while 1' & # perf record -e mem:0x10,mem:0x10,mem:0x10,mem:0x10,mem:0x10 -p `pidof perl`
Before this patch this triggers the same problem/WARN_ON(), after the patch it correctly fails with -ENOSPC.
