remove asm-generic/ptrace.h v3

From: Christoph Hellwig <hch@lst.de>
Date: 2019-06-24 05:47:36 

Hi all,

asm-generic/ptrace.h is a little weird in that it doesn't actually
implement any functionality, but it provided multiple layers of macros
that just implement trivial inline functions.  We implement those
directly in the few architectures and be off with a much simpler
design.

I'm not sure which tree is the right place, but may this can go through
the asm-generic tree since it removes an asm-generic header?


Changes since v2:
 - rebase to latest Linus' tree that added an SPDX tag to
   asm-generic/ptrace.h
 - collected two more Acks from Oleg
Changes since v1:
 - add a missing empty line between functions

[PATCH 1/5] arm64: don't use asm-generic/ptrace.h

From: Christoph Hellwig <hch@lst.de>
Date: 2019-06-24 05:47:40 

Doing the indirection through macros for the regs accessors just
makes them harder to read, so implement the helpers directly.

Note that only the helpers actually used are implemented now.

Applied and pushed to asm-generic.git/master now, sorry for the delay.
