[PATCH 2/2] uprobes/powerpc: Make use of generic routines to enablesingle step

From: Suzuki K. Poulose
Date: Mon Nov 26 2012 - 06:06:56 EST


From: Suzuki K. Poulose <suzuki@xxxxxxxxxx>

Replace the ptrace helpers with the powerpc generic routines to
enable/disable single step. We save/restore the MSR (and DCBR for BookE)
across for the operation.
