[patch 16/20] x86, ptrace: add bts context unconditionally

From: markus . t . metzger
Date: Fri Apr 03 2009 - 10:52:56 EST


Add the ptrace bts context field to task_struct unconditionally.

Initialize the field directly in copy_process().
Remove all the unneeded functionality used to initialize that field.
