[PATCH 2/4] uprobes/powerpc: Do not use arch_uprobe_*_step()helpers

[Oleg Nesterov]

No functional changes.

powerpc is the only user of arch_uprobe_enable/disable_step() helpers,
but they should die. They can not be used correctly, every arch needs
its own implementation (like x86 does). And they do not really help
even as initial-and-almost-working code, arch_uprobe_*_xol() hooks can
easily use user_enable/disable_single_step() directly.

Change arch_uprobe_*_step() to do nothing, and convert powerpc to use
ptrace helpers. This is equally wrong, powerpc needs the arch-specific
fixes.
