Subject: [RFC PATCH 5/X] ptrace: mv task_struct->ptrace
	ptrace_task->pt_flags, kill ptrace_link()

Move task_struct->ptrace into ptrace_task->pt_flags and change the users
accordingly.

Also, kill ptrace_link(). The only caller is ptrace_init_task(), and with
the recent changes we can check "is it traced" earlier, because ->pt_flags
was already initialized by alloc_ptrace_task().
