ptrace: compat_ptrace_request siginfo
This adds support for PTRACE_GETSIGINFO and PTRACE_SETSIGINFO in compat_ptrace_request. It relies on existing arch definitions for copy_siginfo_to_user32 and copy_siginfo_from_user32. On powerpc, this fixes a longstanding regression of 32-bit ptrace calls on 64-bit kernels vs native calls (64-bit calls or 32-bit kernels). This can be seen in a 32-bit call using PTRACE_GETSIGINFO to examine e.g. siginfo_t.si_addr from a signal that sets it. (This was broken as of 2.6.24 and, I presume, many or all prior versions.)
