powerpc/watchpoint: Don't allow concurrent perf and ptrace events

With Book3s DAWR, ptrace and perf watchpoints on powerpc behaves
differently. Ptrace watchpoint works in one-shot mode and generates
signal before executing instruction. It's ptrace user's job to
single-step the instruction and re-enable the watchpoint. OTOH, in
case of perf watchpoint, kernel emulates/single-steps the instruction
and then generates event. If perf and ptrace creates two events with
same or overlapping address ranges, it's ambiguous to decide who
should single-step the instruction. Because of this issue, don't
allow perf and ptrace watchpoint at the same time if their address
range overlaps.
