ptrace.2: Note SPARC deviation with respect to get/set regs
...
SPARC reverses the use of 'addr' and 'data' for
PTRACE_GETREGS, PTRACE_GETFPREGS, PTRACE_SETREGS,
and PTRACE_SETFPREGS.

ptrace.2: Various fixes
...
For some reason, the PTRACE_TRACEME paragraph talks about some
general aspects of ptraced process behavior. It repeats the
"tracee stops on every signal" information even though that was
already explained just a few paragraphs before. Then it describes
legacy SIGTRAP on execve().
This patch deletes the first part, and moves the second part up,
into the general ptrace description. It also adds
"If PTRACE_O_TRACEEXEC option is not in effect" to the description
of the legacy SIGTRAP on execve().
The patch also amends the part which says "For requests other
than PTRACE_KILL, the tracee must be stopped." - PTRACE_ATTACH
also doesn't require that.

ptrace.2: add extended description of various ptrace quirks
...
Changes include:
s/parent/tracer/g, s/child/tracee/g - ptrace interface now
is sufficiently cleaned up to not treat tracing process
as parent.
Deleted several outright false statements:
- pid 1 can be traced
- tracer is not shown as parent in ps output
- PTRACE_ATTACH is not "the same behavior as if tracee had done
a PTRACE_TRACEME": PTRACE_ATTACH delivers a SIGSTOP.
- SIGSTOP _can_ be injected.
- Removed mentions of SunOS and Solaris as irrelevant.
- Added a few more known bugs.
Added a large block of text in DESCRIPTION which doesn't focus
on mechanical description of each flag and operation, but rather
tries to describe a bigger picture. The targeted audience is
a person which is reasonably knowledgeable in Unix but did not
spend years working with ptrace, and thus may be unaware of its
quirks. This text went through several iterations of review by
Oleg Nesterov and Tejun Heo.
This block of text intentionally uses as little markup as possible,
otherwise future modifications to it will be very hard to make.
