Testsuite and watch point?

The watchpoint testcases in gdb expect only

(gdb) watch a.x
Watchpoint 2: a.x

But with my x86 hardware watchpoint change, I can set HW watchpoint
on a.x. Now I got

(gdb) watch a.x
Hardware watchpoint 2: a.x

However, the watchpoint testcases treat it as a failure. I think
the watchpoint testcases should take both "Watchpoint" and
"Hardware watchpoint". I don't know much about the gdb testsuite.
Otherwise, I will fix it myself.

Thanks.
