[PATCH 01/12] Switch to current thread in finish_step_over


V2: move current_thread switch into finsh_step_over

This patch adds some sanity check that reinsert breakpoints must be
there when doing step-over on software single step target.  The check
triggers an assert when running forking-threads-plus-breakpoint.exp
on arm-linux target,

 gdb/gdbserver/linux-low.c:4714: A problem internal to GDBserver has been detected.^M
 int finish_step_over(lwp_info*): Assertion `has_reinsert_breakpoints ()' failed.

the error happens when GDBserver has already resumed a thread of
process A for step-over (and wait for it hitting reinsert breakpoint),
but receives detach request for process B from GDB, which is shown in
the backtrace below,

 (gdb) bt

the sanity check tries to find the reinsert breakpoint from process B,
but nothing is found.  It is wrong, we need to search in process A,
since we started step-over of a thread of process A.

 (gdb) p lwp->thread->entry.id
 $3 = {pid = 25120, lwp = 25131, tid = 0}
 (gdb) p current_thread->entry.id
 $4 = {pid = 25228, lwp = 25228, tid = 0}

This patch switched current_thread to the thread we are doing step-over
in complete_ongoing_step_over.

gdb/gdbserver:

2016-05-31  Yao Qi  <yao.qi@linaro.org>

	* linux-low.c (maybe_hw_step): New function.
	(linux_resume_one_lwp_throw): Call maybe_hw_step.
	(finish_step_over): Switch current_thread to lwp temporarily,
	and assert has_reinsert_breakpoints returns true.
	(proceed_one_lwp): Call maybe_hw_step.
	* mem-break.c (has_reinsert_breakpoints): New function.
	* mem-break.h (has_reinsert_breakpoints): Declare.
