ptrace: Add support for generic PTRACE_GETREGSET/PTRACE_SETREGSET

Generic support for PTRACE_GETREGSET/PTRACE_SETREGSET commands which
export the regsets supported by each architecture using the correponding
NT_* types.

'addr' parameter for the ptrace system call encode the REGSET type and
the buffer length. 'data' parameter points to the user buffer.

	ptrace(PTRACE_GETREGSET/PTRACE_SETREGSET, pid,
	       (NT_TYPE << 20) | buf_length, buf);

For more information on how to use this API by users like debuggers and core
dump for accessing xstate registers, etc., please refer to comments in
arch/x86/include/asm/ptrace-abi.h

+ * The extended register state using xsave/xrstor infrastructure can be
+ * be read and set by the user using the following ptrace command.
+ *
+ *	ptrace(PTRACE_GETREGSET/PTRACE_SETREGSET, pid,
+ *	       (NT_X86_XSTATE << 20) | xstate_buf_length, xstate_buf);
+ *
+ * The structure layout used for the xstate_buf is same as
+ * the memory layout of xsave used by the processor (except for the bytes
+ * 464..511, which can be used by the software) and hence the size
+ * of this structure varies depending on the features supported by the processor
+ * and OS.  The size of the structure that users need to use can be obtained by
+ * doing:
+ *     cpuid_count(0xd, 0, &eax, &ptrace_xstateregs_struct_size, &ecx, &edx);
+ * i.e., cpuid.(eax=0xd,ecx=0).ebx will be the size that user (debuggers, etc.)
+ * need to use.
+ *
+ * The format of this structure will be like:
+ *	struct {
+ *		fxsave_bytes[0..463]
+ *		sw_usable_bytes[464..511]
+ *		xsave_hdr_bytes[512..575]
+ *		avx_bytes[576..831]
+ *		future_state etc
+ *	}
+ *
+ * The same memory layout will be used for the core-dump NT_X86_XSTATE
+ * note representing the xstate registers.
+ *
+ * For now, only the first 8 bytes of the sw_usable_bytes[464..471] will
+ * be used and will be set to OS enabled xstate mask (which is same as the
+ * 64bit mask returned by the xgetbv's xCR0).  Users (analyzing core dump
+ * remotely, etc.) can use this mask as well as the mask saved in the
+ * xstate_hdr bytes and interpret what states the processor/OS supports
+ * and what states are in modified/initialized conditions for the
+ * particular process/thread.
+ *
+ * Also when the user modifies certain state FP/SSE/etc through this
+ * PTRACE_SETXSTATEREGS, they must ensure that the xsave_hdr.xstate_bv
+ * bytes[512..519] of the above memory layout are updated correspondingly.
+ * i.e., for example when FP state is modified to a non-init state,
+ * xsave_hdr.xstate_bv's bit 0 must be set to '1', when SSE is modified to
+ * non-init state, xsave_hdr.xstate_bv's bit 1 must to be set to '1', etc.
