The patch only implements it for "server/classic" processors, not BookE,
thus it should probably only advertise it for these :-)

Though it wouldn't be too hard to implement it for BookE using DBCR0:BRT
(Branch Taken debug event) though it might need some careful fixups such
as the one we have for single step regarding hitting exception entry
code.

Cheers,
Ben.
