[RFC PATCH 01/43] ptrace: change signature of sys_ptrace() and friends

[Namhyung Kim <namhyung@gmail.com>]

Since user space API of ptrace syscall defines @addr and @data as void
pointers, it would be more appropriate to define them as unsigned long
in kernel. Therefore related functions are changed also.
