[IA64] forbid ptrace changes psr.ri to 3
The "ri" field in the processor status register only has defined values of 0, 1, 2. Do not let ptrace set this to 3. As with other reserved fields in registers we silently discard the value. Signed-off-by: Shaohua Li <shaohua.li@intel.com> Signed-off-by: Tony Luck <tony.luck@intel.com>
