    ptrace: revert "Prepare to fix racy accesses on task breakpoints" · 7c8df286

    This reverts commit bf26c018 ("Prepare to fix racy accesses on task
    breakpoints").
    
    The patch was fine but we can no longer race with SIGKILL after commit
    9899d11f
    
     ("ptrace: ensure arch_ptrace/ptrace_request can never race
    with SIGKILL"), the __TASK_TRACED tracee can't be woken up and
    ->ptrace_bps[] can't go away.
    
    Now that ptrace_get_breakpoints/ptrace_put_breakpoints have no callers,
    we can kill them and remove task->ptrace_bp_refcnt.
