Hmm, is this just to save test time?  If so, I'd prefer not skipping,
as it may always catch other bugs, in the target backends or
the kernel.

Despite the test's file name, the test doesn't actually create two
breakpoints/watchpoints at the same time, as mentioned at the top
of the file.

In any case:

I think "same" should be in the proc name:

 same_dbg_registers_for_watch_and_break
