Yes, That is a good point. I want to merge gdb and gdbserver code for
arm and aarch64 respectively, especially on inserting and removing
watchpoint. However, arm vs. aarch64 are very different, unlike x86
vs. x86_64, in terms of different instruction set, software single step
vs hardware single step, different ptrace requests to access watchpoint
registers, etc.
