[PATCH v3 04/11] ptrace/xtensa: Replace PT_SINGLESTEP with TIF_SINGLESTEP

Wed May 4 15:40:51 PDT 2022


xtensa is the last user of the PT_SINGLESTEP flag.  Changing tsk->ptrace in
user_enable_single_step and user_disable_single_step without locking could
potentiallly cause problems.

So use a thread info flag instead of a flag in tsk->ptrace.  Use TIF_SINGLESTEP
that xtensa already had defined but unused.

Remove the definitions of PT_SINGLESTEP and PT_BLOCKSTEP as they have no more users.
