I tested this under RT (had to remove the preempt-disable section in
ptrace_stop()) with ssdd [0]. It forks a few tasks and then
PTRACE_SINGLESTEPs them for a few iterations.

The following failures were reported by that tool:
| forktest#27/3790: EXITING, ERROR: wait on PTRACE_ATTACH saw a SIGCHLD count of 0, should be 1
| forktest#225/40029: EXITING, ERROR: wait on PTRACE_SINGLESTEP #22241: no SIGCHLD seen (signal count == 0), signo 5

very rarely. Then I managed to figure out that the latter error triggers
if I compile something large with a RT priority. Sadly it also happens
with my old ptrace hack (but I just noticed it). It didn't happen with
without RT (just the 5 patches applied).

I also managed to trigger this backtrace with RT:

which is the WARN_ON_ONCE() in clear_traced_quiesce().
