a9353fe897ca2687e5b3385ed39e3db3927a90e0 exec.c: Fix breakpoint invalidation race
A bug (1647683) was reported showing a crash when removing
breakpoints. The reproducer was bisected to 3359baad when tb_flush
was finally made thread safe. While in MTTCG the locking in
breakpoint_invalidate would have prevented any problems, but
currently tb_lock() is a NOP for system emulation.
The race is between a tb_flush from the gdbstub and the
tb_invalidate_phys_addr() in breakpoint_invalidate().
Ideally we'd have actual locking here; for the moment the
simple fix is to do a full tb_flush() for a bp invalidate,
since that is thread-safe even if no lock is taken.
