So, when you want to get a cmdstream trace of some deqp or piglit test,
but you happen to be running it on the same laptop with full desktop
env, the current dump-everything firehose of `cat $debugfs/dri/n/rd` is
quite a bit too much.  Ptrace seemed kind of a natural way to control
it, ie. either run what you want to trace under gdb or hack in a
ptrace(PTRACE_TRACEME) call.

I think this is a good idea, to be able to separate process being 
debugged and all other tasks.
