The commit a8a4b03ab9 ("powerpc: Hard wire PT_SOFTE value to 1 in
ptrace & signals") changed ptrace_get_reg(PT_SOFTE) to report 0x1,
but PTRACE_GETREGS still copies pt_regs->softe as is.
This is not consistent and this breaks the user-regs-peekpoke test
from https://sourceware.org/systemtap/wiki/utrace/tests/

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.
