[PATCH v3 0/7] arm64: Fix single-step handling and syscall tracing

Hi folks,

This is version three of the patches I previous posted here:

  v1: https://lore.kernel.org/r/20200603151033.11512-1-will@kernel.org
  v2: https://lore.kernel.org/r/20200702212618.17800-1-will@kernel.org

This version includes some changes I've been hacking on in relation to
syscall entry/exit, as it seemed worth lumping all this together. I've
also reordered the series to put the fixes at the start.

Luis -- did you manage to test v2? I'd quite like to queue some of this
soon. If you don't have time, how can I run the GDB testsuite myself? I
tried doing it a _long_ time ago but I remember there being a lot of
failures and flakey tests, so it wasn't very helpful. I have arm64
hardware running Debian so it's just a question of which buttons to
press :)

Cheers,

Will
