Subject: [PATCH 19/24] ptrace: Allow compat to use the native siginfo

With ARM64 ILP32 ABI, we want to use the non-compat
siginfo as we want to simplify signal handling for this new ABI.
This patch just adds a new define COMPAT_USE_NATIVE_SIGINFO and
if it is true then read/write in the compat case as it was the
non-compat case.
