ptrace: Allow compat to use the native siginfo
With ARM64 ILP32 ABI, we want to use the non-compat siginfo as we want to simplify signal handling for this new ABI. This patch just adds a new define COMPAT_USE_NATIVE_SIGINFO and if it is true then read/write in the compat case as it was the non-compat case. Signed-off-by: Andrew Pinski <apinski@cavium.com>
