[patch 2/2] ptrace: turn ptrace_access_check() into a retval function

[Ingo Molnar <mingo@elte.hu>]

ptrace_access_check() returns a bool, while most of the ptrace 
access check machinery works with Linux retvals (where 0 indicates 
success, negative indicates an error).

So eliminate the bool and invert the usage at the call sites.

( Note: "< 0" checks are used instead of !0 checks, because that's
  the convention for retval checks and it results in similarly fast
  assembly code. )

[ Impact: cleanup ]
