The attached patch fixes three debugging problems in the frv arch:
(1) Single-stepping in userspace steps through into the kernel-mode interrupt
handler when a hardware interrupt happens, and sometimes it gets past
where the debug-mode handler would normally catch it. This patch extends
the range of detected PC values.
(2) When setting up the kernel-mode exception frame from the debug-mode
handler for a userspace debugging event, we weren't setting the LR
register to generate a return to the exception handler epilogue.
(3) sys_ptrace() now needs to "put" the inferior task_struct not "free" it as
was done in 2.4.
