[PATCH 3/4] ia64: kill thread_matches(), unexportptrace_check_attach()

From: Oleg Nesterov
Date: Sun Jan 20 2013 - 14:26:14 EST


arch/ia64/kernel/ptrace.c:thread_matches() has no users since e868a55c
"[IA64] remove find_thread_for_addr()", remove it.

And this allows us to unexport ptrace_check_attach().
