Subject: [PATCH v3 2/7] x86/fsgsbase/64: Make ptrace read FS/GS base accurately

From: Andy Lutomirski <luto@...nel.org>

ptrace can read FS/GS base using the register access API
(PTRACE_PEEKUSER, etc) or PTRACE_ARCH_PRCTL.  Make both of these
mechanisms return the actual FS/GS base.

This will improve debuggability by providing the correct information
to ptracer (GDB and etc).
