Dear Arnd:

Thanks for your comments.

After referring to risc-v and arm64, I realize that PTRACE_GETREGSET
and PTRACE_SETREGSET is used to replace arch specific command.
The needed port for the two ptrace commands had done in current
version patch.

Could I keep them and just removing the code for old-style ptrace
handling in the next version patch?

Thanks

Vincent
