Indenting looks wrong. Otherwise okay to commit. Thanks for persevering!
I don't _think_ the target_region_ok_for_hw_watchpoint semantics
change breaks any target.
I dare you to implement or think about how you'd implement step 2.5
of my list with this interface. :-) You don't seem to have a way
for the target to return "I can hardware assist watching this memory
region, and I need exactly zero debug registers to do it." ?
