powerpc: Extended ptrace interface
From: Dave Kleikamp <shaggy@linux.vnet.ibm.com>
Based on patches originally written by Torez Smith.
Add a new extended ptrace interface so that user-space has a single
interface for powerpc, without having to know the specific layout
of the debug registers.
Implement:
PPC_PTRACE_GETHWDEBUGINFO
PPC_PTRACE_SETHWDEBUG
PPC_PTRACE_DELHWDEBUG

This adds block-step support on powerpc, including a PTRACE_SINGLEBLOCK
request for ptrace.
The BookE implementation is tweaked to fire a single step after a
block step in order to mimmic the server behaviour.

All architectures now use the generic compat_sys_ptrace, as should every
new architecture that needs 32bit compat (if we'll ever get another).
Remove the now superflous __ARCH_WANT_COMPAT_SYS_PTRACE define, and also
kill a comment about __ARCH_SYS_PTRACE that was added after
__ARCH_SYS_PTRACE was already gone.

from include/asm-powerpc. This is the result of a
mkdir arch/powerpc/include/asm
git mv include/asm-powerpc/* arch/powerpc/include/asm
Followed by a few documentation/comment fixups and a couple of places
where <asm-powepc/...> was being used explicitly. Of the latter only
one was outside the arch code and it is a driver only built for powerpc.
