ARM: 6883/1: ptrace: Migrate to regsets framework

Browse Source 
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.
