2.6.37-stable review patch. If anyone has any objections, please let us know.
------------------
From: David Engraf <david.eng...@sysgo.com>
commit fb7f045ace0624f1e59a7db8497e460bd54b1cbc upstream.
Since commit 34d0b5af50a063cded842716633501b38ff815fb it is no longer
possible to debug an application using singlestep. The old commit
converted singlestep handling via ptrace to hw_breakpoints. The
hw_breakpoint is disabled when an event is triggered and not re-enabled
again. This patch re-enables the existing hw_breakpoint before the
existing breakpoint is reused.
