i tried to apply your patches to x86.git, but your patches were
linewrapped and had strange artifacts in them:

| @@ -610,6 +612,32 @@
| (struct user_desc __user *)
| data);
| break;
| =20
| + case PTRACE_BTS_ALLOCATE_BUFFER:
| +

could you please resend with this fixed (preferably against x86.git,
which has Roland's ptrace cleanups?).
