return zero in arm_linux_can_use_hw_breakpoint if HW point isn't supported

Browse source 
This patch is to cherry-pick part of Pedro's patch here
https://sourceware.org/ml/gdb-patches/2015-04/msg00527.html in which
zero is returned if the HW point isn't supported.

In arm-linux native gdb testing on a board doesn't support HW breakpoint,
without this patch, the output in gdb.base/breakpoint-in-ro-region.exp is like:

(gdb) hbreak *0x83bc^M
Hardware breakpoints used exceeds limit.^M
(gdb) PASS: gdb.base/breakpoint-in-ro-region.exp: probe hbreak support (support)

with this patch, the output becomes:

(gdb) hbreak *0x83bc^M
No hardware breakpoint support in the target.^M
(gdb) PASS: gdb.base/breakpoint-in-ro-region.exp: probe hbreak support (no support)

As a result, the following fails are fixed.

-FAIL: gdb.base/breakpoint-in-ro-region.exp: always-inserted off: auto-hw on: step in ro region (cannot insert hw break)
-FAIL: gdb.base/breakpoint-in-ro-region.exp: always-inserted off: auto-hw on: thread advanced
-FAIL: gdb.base/breakpoint-in-ro-region.exp: always-inserted on: auto-hw on: step in ro region (cannot insert hw break)
-FAIL: gdb.base/breakpoint-in-ro-region.exp: always-inserted on: auto-hw on: thread advanced
