The pt_regs struct had both a 'syscallno' field and an 'orig_gpr11' field
and it wasn't really clear how these were supposed to be used. This patch
removes the syscallno field altogether and makes orig_gpr11 work more
like other architectures: keep track of syscall number in progress or
hold -1 for non-syscall exceptions.

Commits d7e7528bcd and
b05d8447e7 simplified the usage of the
audit_syscall_[entry|exit] functions. Unfortunately, the OpenRISC
architecture didn't get fixed up along with the other architectures when
those patches were pushed. This makes the relevant changes to this
architecture.

This patch implements minimal PTrace support. The pt_regs structure is
not exported to userspace for OpenRISC; rather, the GETREGSET mechanism
is intended to be used and the registers, as such, exported in the core
dump format which is ABI stable. This is in line with what is intended
for new architectures as of 2.6.34 and has the advantage of permitting
the layout of the registers on the kernel stack (as per pt_regs) to be
freely modified.
