This adds a generic definition of compat_sys_ptrace that calls
compat_arch_ptrace, parallel to sys_ptrace/arch_ptrace.  Some
machines needing this already define a function by that name.
The new generic function is defined only on machines that
put #define __ARCH_WANT_COMPAT_SYS_PTRACE into asm/ptrace.h.
