Split out addressing mode bits from PSW_BASE_BITS, rename PSW_BASE_BITS
to PSW_MASK_BASE, get rid of psw_user32_bits, remove unused function
enabled_wait(), introduce PSW_MASK_USER, and drop PSW_MASK_MERGE macros.
Change psw_kernel_bits / psw_user_bits to contain only the bits that
are always set in the respective mode.

Provide additional information on SIGTRAP by using a sig_info signal.
Use TRAP_BRKPT for breakpoints via illegal operation and TRAP_HWBKPT
for breakpoints via program event recording. Provide the address of
the instruction that caused the breakpoint via si_addr.
While we are at it get rid of tracehook_consider_fatal_signal.

<title>ptrace: kill trivial tracehooks</title>

At this point, tracehooks aren't useful to mainline kernel and mostly
just add an extra layer of obfuscation.  Although they have comments,
without actual in-kernel users, it is difficult to tell what are their
assumptions and they're actually trying to achieve.  To mainline
kernel, they just aren't worth keeping around.

This patch kills the following trivial tracehooks.

* Ones testing whether task is ptraced.  Replace with -&gt;ptrace test.

	tracehook_expect_breakpoints()
	tracehook_consider_ignored_signal()
	tracehook_consider_fatal_signal()

* ptrace_event() wrappers.  Call directly.

	tracehook_report_exec()
	tracehook_report_exit()
	tracehook_report_vfork_done()

* ptrace_release_task() wrapper.  Call directly.

	tracehook_finish_release_task()

* noop

	tracehook_prepare_release_task()
	tracehook_report_death()

This doesn't introduce any behavior change.

task_show_regs used to be a debugging aid in the early bringup days
of Linux on s390. /proc/&lt;pid&gt;/status is a world readable file, it
is not a good idea to show the registers of a process. The only
correct fix is to remove task_show_regs.

Until now machine checks for the swapper process of the IPL cpu are just
implicitly (and more or less accidently) enabled when the first time the
idle process goes into idle state and loads an enabled wait psw.
Before that machine checks are disabled.
So let's enable them explicitly in trap_init() so we have a well defined
time when machine checks are enabled.
