[PATCH 117] (upstream) tracehook_signal_handler: check PT_PTRACED

No functional changes, preparation for utrace-ptrace.

tracehook_signal_handler() is the only caller of ptrace_notify() which
doesn't check the task is ptraced, it assumes that only ptrace can set
TIF_SINGLESTEP.

Currently this is true but we are going to change this, check PT_PTRACED.
