perfmon broken

   Looks like this changeset back between 2.6.9-rc1-bk15 & bk16 broke
perfmon:

        [PATCH] cleanup ptrace stops and remove notify_parent
        
        This adds a new state TASK_TRACED that is used in place of
        TASK_STOPPED when a thread stops because it is ptraced.  Now
        ptrace operations are only permitted when the target is in
        TASK_TRACED state, not in TASK_STOPPED.
        ...

 Here's the simple fix, perhaps Stephane has a better approach.  Thanks,

	Alex
