[PATCH 0/6] syscall_trace fixes and cleanups

Hello all,
This series makes a number of fixes and cleanups to the system call
tracing code on ARM, as well as fixing the interactions with audit.
The first two patches should probably go into -stable whilst the rest
can wait for later. Note that this will conflict horribly with the
tracehook code added recently (sitting in -next) and also with the
additional tracehook patch sitting in the patch system (7375/1).
I'd like to get the two stable patches in ASAP and then help with the
conflict resolution for the merge window (although other ideas welcome).
I can rebase the rest of the series as required.
I lightly tested the audit stuff and gave strace a decent run tracing
through forks.
All comments welcome,
Will

ARM: audit: fix treatment of saved ip register during syscall tracing
ARM: audit: use only AUDIT_ARCH_ARM regardless of endianness
audit: arm: only allow syscall auditing for pure EABI userspace
ARM: entry: don't bother with syscall tracing on ret_from_fork path
ARM: audit: move syscall auditing until after ptrace SIGTRAP handling
ARM: ptrace: provide separate functions for tracing syscall
