My change is specific to Linux/x86. Since gdb has been working that
way on x86 for many years, I assumed I was the only person who wanted
to change it. I made my change limited only to Linux/x86 so that other
x86 platforms remain the same.

BTW, I can set hardware watchpoints on array element, struct member
and 4 long long, float, double or long double.
