arm64: kprobes: Use BRK instead of single-step when executing instructions out-of-line

Commit 36dadef2 ("kprobes: Init kprobes in early_initcall") enabled
using kprobes from early_initcall. Unfortunately at this point the
hardware debug infrastructure is not operational. The OS lock may still
be locked, and the hardware watchpoints may have unknown values when
kprobe enables debug monitors to single-step instructions.

Rather than using hardware single-step, append a BRK instruction after
the instruction to be executed out-of-line.
