* i386-linux-nat.c (ps_get_thread_area): Don't define as extern.
Only define PTRACE_GET_THREAD_AREA is not already defined. Various style fixes in code and comments and some additional spelling fixes in comments. Move after functions dealing with debug registers. * x86-64-linux-nat.c (ps_get_thread_area): Don't define as extern. Fix coding-style.
