[PATCH v2 0/4] uprobes/powerpc: Replace ptrace helpers for single stepping

["Suzuki K. Poulose" <suzuki@in.ibm.com>]

The following series replaces the ptrace helpers used for single step
enable/disable for uprobes on powerpc, with uprobe specific code.

We reuse the kprobe code to enable single stepping by making it generic
and save/restore the MSR (and DBCR for BookE) across the single step.

This series applies on top of the patches posted by Oleg at :
	https://lkml.org/lkml/2012/10/28/92 


Patches have been verified on Power6 and PPC440 (BookE).

Changes since V1: 

 * Don't disable external interrupts. (Sebastian)
 * Introduced routines for saving/restoring the context for sstep.
 * Restore the context in arch_uprobe_abort_xol() (Oleg)
