parisc: fix bug in compat_arch_ptrace
Commit 81e192d6ce303b6792aa38ff35f41a1a7357f23a ("parisc: convert to
generic compat_sys_ptrace") introduced a bug which segfaults the parisc
64bit kernel when stracing 32bit applications:
Kernel Fault: Code=15 regs=00000000bafa42b0 (Addr=00000001baf5ab57)

Backtrace:
[<00000000401612ac>] compat_sys_ptrace+0x15c/0x180
[<0000000040104ef8>] syscall_exit+0x0/0x14
The problem is that compat_arch_ptrace() enters with an addr value of
type compat_ulong_t and calls translate_usr_offset() to translate the
address offset into a struct pt_regs offset like this:
addr = translate_usr_offset(addr)
this means that any return value of translate_usr_offset() is stored
back as compat_ulong_t type into the addr variable.
But since translate_usr_offset() returns -1 for invalid offsets, addr
can now get the value 0xffffffff which then fails the next return-value
sanity check and thus the kernel tries to access invalid memory:
if (addr < 0)
break;
Fix this bug by modifying translate_usr_offset() to take and return
values of type compat_ulong_t, and by returning the value
"sizeof(struct pt_regs)" as an error indicator.
Additionally change the sanity check to check for return values
for >= sizeof(struct pt_regs).
This patch survived my compile and run-tests.
