ARM: 6883/1: ptrace: Migrate to regsets framework
This patch migrates the implementation of the ptrace interface for the core integer registers, legacy FPA registers and VFP registers to use the regsets framework. As an added bonus, all this stuff gets included in coredumps at no extra cost. Without this patch, coredumps contained no VFP state. Third-party extension register sets (iwmmx, crunch) are not migrated by this patch, and continue to use the old implementation; these should be migratable without much extra work.
