Clone generic linux/sys/ptrace.h, remove x86-specific PTRACE_GETFPXREGS
and PTRACE_SETFPXREGS constants, add the following arm-specific
__ptrace_request constants: PTRACE_GETWMMXREGS, PTRACE_SETWMMXREGS,
PTRACE_GET_THREAD_AREA, PTRACE_SET_SYSCALL, PTRACE_GETCRUNCHREGS,
PTRACE_SETCRUNCHREGS, PTRACE_GETVFPREGS, PTRACE_SETVFPREGS,
PTRACE_GETHBPREGS, PTRACE_SETHBPREGS, and PTRACE_GETFDPIC.

Tested with strace.

[BZ #22433]
* sysdeps/unix/sysv/linux/arm/sys/ptrace.h: New file.

Remove compat-specific constants that were never exported by kernel
headers under these names.  Before linux commit v3.7-rc1~16^2~1 they
were exported with COMPAT_ prefix, and after that commit they are not
exported at all.

To implement a proper multilib sys/ptrace.h on aarch64, arm/sys/ptrace.h
has to be used instead of aarch64/sys/ptrace.h with all arm-specific
definitions ifdef'ed.

* sysdeps/unix/sysv/linux/aarch64/sys/ptrace.h (__ptrace_request):
Remove arm-specific PTRACE_GET_THREAD_AREA, PTRACE_GETHBPREGS,
and PTRACE_SETHBPREGS.

ARM and AArch64 are separate toolchain ports requiring separate compilers.  
There is no support for multilib headers supporting both in the same 
header.  (Debian/Ubuntu multiarch configurations put all bits/ and sys/ 
headers in multiarch directory arrangements so could handle having both 
versions of a sys/ header installed without problems.)

OK, with the copyright year range changed to end with 2018.

Sure.  My comment is addressed to people who might consider implementing
multilib headers on aarch64 in the future.

Any more comments?  Is the change OK?

no, multilib header support is not wanted with arm and aarch64,
they are separate targets.

i thought users of ptrace.h just include the linux asm/ptrace.h
anyway, so glibc does not need to track linux uapi.
(at least gdb does that in its linux specific code)

Sadly, this happens sometimes because sys/ptrace.h is used to be out of date.
However, sys/ptrace.h is still in use, otherwise we wouldn't receive bug
