This follows the x86/ppc changes for kprobe-based event tracing on sh.
While kprobes is only supported on 32-bit sh, we provide the API for
HAVE_REGS_AND_STACK_ACCESS_API for both 32 and 64-bit.

While in theory user_enable_single_step/user_disable_single_step/
user_enable_blockstep could also be provided as an inline or macro there's
no good reason to do so, and having the prototype in one places keeps code
size and confusion down.
Roland said:
The original thought there was that user_enable_single_step() et al
might well be only an instruction or three on a sane machine (as if we
have any of those!), and since there is only one call site inlining
would be beneficial. But I agree that there is no strong reason to care
about inlining it.
As to the arch changes, there is only one thought I'd add to the
record. It was always my thinking that for an arch where
PTRACE_SINGLESTEP does text-modifying breakpoint insertion,
user_enable_single_step() should not be provided. That is,
arch_has_single_step()=>true means that there is an arch facility with
"pure" semantics that does not have any unexpected side effects.
Inserting a breakpoint might do very unexpected strange things in
multi-threaded situations. Aside from that, it is a peculiar side
effect that user_{enable,disable}_single_step() should cause COW
de-sharing of text pages and so forth. For PTRACE_SINGLESTEP, all these
peculiarities are the status quo ante for that arch, so having
arch_ptrace() itself do those is one thing. But for building other
things in the future, it is nicer to have a uniform "pure" semantics
that arch-independent code can expect.
OTOH, all such arch issues are really up to the arch maintainer. As
of today, there is nothing but ptrace using user_enable_single_step() et
al so it's a distinction without a practical difference. If/when there
are other facilities that use user_enable_single_step() and might care,
the affected arch's can revisit the question when someone cares about
the quality of the arch support for said new facility.

This adds some helper routines for uncached mapping support. This
simplifies some of the cases where we need to check the uncached mapping
boundaries in addition to giving us a centralized location for building
more complex manipulation on top of.

This splits out the uncached mapping support under its own config option,
presently only used by 29-bit mode and 32-bit + PMB. This will make it
possible to optionally add an uncached mapping on sh64 as well as booting
without an uncached mapping for 32-bit.

syscall_nr is presently defined as unsigned in the SH-5 pt_regs,
while the syscall restarting code wants it to be signed. Fix this
up, and bring it in line with the other SH parts.

There were a number of issues with the DSP context save/restore code,
mostly left-over relics from when it was introduced on SH3-DSP with
little follow-up testing, resulting in things like task_pt_dspregs()
referencing incorrect state on the stack.
This follows the MIPS convention of tracking the DSP state in the
thread_struct and handling the state save/restore in switch_to() and
finish_arch_switch() respectively. The regset interface is also updated,
which allows us to finally be rid of task_pt_dspregs() and the special
cased task_pt_regs().

This converts the single stepping done by sh/sh64 ptrace implementations
to use the generic user_enable/disable_single_step(), and subsequently
rips out a lot of ptrace request cases that are now handled generically.
