ptrace: ptrace_check_attach() should not do s/STOPPED/TRACED/
After "ptrace: Clean transitions between TASK_STOPPED and TRACED" d79fdd6d96f46fabb779d86332e3677c6f5c2a4f, ptrace_check_attach() should never see a TASK_STOPPED tracee and s/STOPPED/TRACED/ is no longer legal. Add the warning. Note: ptrace_check_attach() can be greatly simplified, in particular it doesn't need tasklist. But I'd prefer another patch for that.
