Subject[PATCH v3 3/5] register_wide_hw_breakpoint(): modify to accept step_needed arg
Date
arch like ARM64 expects 'step_needed = 1'  in order to use default
single step handler. Therefore, modify register_wide_hw_breakpoint()
implementation,so that we can set this field in struct hw_perf_event to
be used later by arch specific code.

Other arch will not have any affect as they do not use it so far.
