This moves the macro loaddebug from asm-i386/suspend.h to asm-i386/processor.h,
which is the place that makes sense for it to be defined, removes the
extra copy of the same macro in arch/i386/kernel/process.c, and makes
arch/i386/kernel/signal.c use the macro in place of its expansion.
This is a purely cosmetic cleanup for the normal i386 kernel.
However, it is handy for Xen to be able to just redefine the loaddebug
macro once instead of also changing the signal.c code.
Thanks,
Roland
