The sys_ptrace boilerplate code (everything outside the big switch
statement for the arch-specific requests) is shared by most
architectures.  This patch moves it to kernel/ptrace.c and leaves the
arch-specific code as arch_ptrace.

The signature of arch_ptrace needs to return long, and not int.
The PTRACE_PEEK{TEXT,DATA,USR} requests return a "word", which 
on 64-bit arches needs to be a 64-bit type.

Ok.  Will be that way in the next patch.
