ARM: 7337/1: ptrace: fix ptrace_read_user for !CONFIG_MMU platforms
Commit 68b7f715 ("nommu: ptrace support") added definitions for PT_TEXT_ADDR and friends, as well as adding ptrace support for reading from these magic offsets. Unfortunately, this has probably never worked, since ptrace_read_user predicates reading on off < sizeof(struct user), returning -EIO otherwise. This patch moves the offset size check until after we have tried to match it against either a magic value or an offset into pt_regs.
