Sometimes when setting a breakpoint a process doesn't stop on it.
This is because the debug registers are not loaded correctly on
VCPU load.
The following simple reproducer from Oleg Nesterov tries using debug
registers in two threads. To see the bug, run a 2-VCPU guest with
"taskset -c 0" and run "./bp 0 1" inside the guest.
