okay. I removed the other lines.

Yes. I've run the test on several machines.

If this is okay, I'll commit it on Monday.

Patch

commit 5a547ac7caceb9ad2ac4903966b9d5294dfa4f7c
Author: Stefan Liebler <stli@linux.vnet.ibm.com>
Date:   Fri Jul 7 15:07:42 2017 +0200

    S390: Fix tst-ptrace-singleblock if kernel does not support PTRACE_SINGLEBLOCK.
    
    The request PTRACE_SINGLEBLOCK was introduced in Linux 3.15.  Thus the ptrace call
    will fail on older kernels.
    Thus the test is now testing PTRACE_SINGLEBLOCK with data argument pointing to a
    buffer on stack which is assumed to fail.  If the request would be interpreted as
    PTRACE_GETREGS, then the ptrace call will not fail and the regs are written to buf.
    
    If we run with a kernel with support for PTRACE_SINGLEBLOCK a ptrace call with
    data=NULL, returns zero with no error.  If we run with a kernel without support for
    PTRACE_SINGLEBLOCK a ptrace call with data=NULL reports an error.
    In the latter case, the test is just continuing with PTRACE_CONT.
    
    ChangeLog:
    
    	* sysdeps/unix/sysv/linux/s390/tst-ptrace-singleblock.c:
    	Support running on kernels without PTRACE_SINGLEBLOCK.
