Allow ptrace to set dabr in the thread structure for both 32 and 64  
bits,
though only 64 bits actually uses that field, it's actually defined  
in both.

Can you make these -EIO for CONFIG_BOOKE for now.
I suppose best is to define set_dabr to have a result code...

The std DABR format is good enough to carry a generic setting whatever
the HW implementation is I think.
