Re: [patch] s390: Remove self ptrace IEEE_IP hack.

And now that the last architecture (s390) has been converted to the
generic ptrace code the __ARCH_SYS_PTRACE ifdef can go away. Once we've
also converted all architectures to compat_sys_ptrace some more code can
be made private to kernel/ptrace.c.
