ptrace: Move setting/clearing ptrace_message into ptrace_stop
Today ptrace_message is easy to overlook as it not a core part of
ptrace_stop. It has been overlooked so much that there are places
that set ptrace_message and don't clear it, and places that never set
it. So if you get an unlucky sequence of events the ptracer may be
able to read a ptrace_message that does not apply to the current
ptrace stop.
Move setting of ptrace_message into ptrace_stop so that it always gets
set before the stop, and always gets cleared after the stop. This
prevents non-sense from being reported to userspace and makes
ptrace_message more visible in the ptrace helper functions so that
kernel developers can see it.
