This is a bug to track two related upstream PRs, one for gdb and one for the
kernel:
- https://sourceware.org/bugzilla/show_bug.cgi?id=31486
  "[gdb/tdep, aarch64] Hang when hitting access watchpoint on M1"
- https://bugzilla.kernel.org/show_bug.cgi?id=218628
  "Aarch64 inexact watchpoint address make SIGTRAP hard to interpret"

Sofar I only managed to reproduce the problem on macbook M1, but it might also
occur with new server hardware supporting SVE or the MOPS feature.
