Markus Metzger bf53de907d x86, bts: add fork and exit handling
Impact: introduce new ptrace facility

Add arch_ptrace_untrace() function that is called when the tracer
detaches (either voluntarily or when the tracing task dies);
ptrace_disable() is only called on a voluntary detach.

Add ptrace_fork() and arch_ptrace_fork(). They are called when a
traced task is forked.

Clear DS and BTS related fields on fork.

Release DS resources and reclaim memory in ptrace_untrace(). This
releases resources already when the tracing task dies. We used to do
that when the traced task dies.

/*
* Debug Store (DS) support
*
* This provides a low-level interface to the hardware's Debug Store
* feature that is used for branch trace store (BTS) and
* precise-event based sampling (PEBS).
*
* It manages:
* - DS and BTS hardware configuration
* - buffer overflow handling (to be done)
* - buffer access
*
* It does not do:
* - security checking (is the caller allowed to trace the task)
* - buffer allocation (memory accounting)
