uml: improve PTRACE_SYSEMU checking

Browse source 
Make the PTRACE_SYSEMU checking more robust.  It will make sure that system
call numbers are reported correctly.  If there is a problem, it will disable
PTRACE_SYSEMU use and use PTRACE_SYSCALL instead.

Thanks to Balaji G for helping reproduce this problem.
