arm64: compat: Allow single-byte watchpoints on all addresses

BugLink: https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1845038

commit 849adec4 upstream.

Commit d968d2b8 ("ARM: 7497/1: hw_breakpoint: allow single-byte
watchpoints on all addresses") changed the validation requirements for
hardware watchpoints on arch/arm/. Update our compat layer to implement
the same relaxation.
