I know nothing about ARM, so I can't actually review this change.
But it looks good to me ;)

I don't think we want user_{enable,disable{_single_step in the long term,
please look at 9bd1190a11c9d2 "uprobes/x86: Do not (ab)use TIF_SINGLESTEP
/user_*_single_step() for single-stepping". it seems that ARM64 sets/clears
TIF_SINGLESTEP. You can also lool at saved_tf logic, probably ARM64 needs
the same.

However, I agree we can do this later and initial version can use these
ptrace helpers.
