commit c200e4bb44e80b343c09841e7caaaca0aac5e5fa upstream. User mode linux is the last user of the PT_DTRACE flag. Using the flag to indicate single stepping is a little confusing and worse changing tsk->ptrace without locking could potentionally cause problems. So use a thread info flag with a better name instead of flag in tsk->ptrace. Remove the definition PT_DTRACE as uml is the last user.

Linux kernel
============
There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can
be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read
Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first.
In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``. The formatted documentation can also be read online at:
https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/
There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation.
Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the
requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about
the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
