thread_change_pc() uses CPU local data, so must be protected from
swapping CPUs while it is reading the breakpoint struct.

The error is more noticeable after 1e60f3564bad ("powerpc/watchpoints:
Track perf single step directly on the breakpoint"), which added an
unconditional __this_cpu_read() call in thread_change_pc(). However the
existing __this_cpu_read() that runs if a breakpoint does need to be
re-inserted has the same issue.
