Bug description:
Don't allow ptrace to set RIP to a value that couldn't happen by
ordinary control flow. There are CPU bugs^Wfeatures that can have
interesting effects if RIP is non-canonical. I didn't make the
corresponding x86_32 change, since x86_32 has no concept of canonical
addresses. putreg32 doesn't need this fix: value is only 32 bits, so
it can't be non-canonical.
