	  This enables extended support for UMC processors

	help

	  Add support for Debug Store.

	  This allows the kernel to provide a memory buffer to the hardware

	  to store various profiling and tracing events.

	help

	  Add a ptrace interface to allow collecting an execution trace

	  of the traced task.

	  This collects control flow changes in a (cyclic) buffer and allows

	  debuggers to fill in the gaps and show an execution trace of the debuggee.
