Commitd53d9bc0cf("x86/debug: Change thread.debugreg6 to thread.virtual_dr6") changed the semantics of the variable from random collection of bits, to exactly only those bits that ptrace() needs. Unfortunately this lost DR_STEP for PTRACE_{BLOCK,SINGLE}STEP. Furthermore, it turns out that userspace expects DR_STEP to be unconditionally available, even for manual TF usage outside of PTRACE_{BLOCK,SINGLE}_STEP.

Linux kernel
============
There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can
be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read
Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first.
In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``. The formatted documentation can also be read online at:
https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/
There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation.
Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the
requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about
the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
