[PATCH 03/12] Step over exit with reinsert breakpoints


This patch fixes a GDBserver crash when one thread is stepping over
a syscall instruction which is exit.  Step-over isn't finished due
to the exit, but GDBserver doesn't clean up the state of step-over,
so in the wait next time, GDBserver will wait on step_over_bkpt,
which is already exited, and GDBserver crashes because
'requested_child' is NULL.  See gdbserver logs below,

step_over_bkpt set [LWP 14858.14858], doing a blocking wait

  # but step_over_bkpt is still LWP 14858, which is wrong

The fix is to finish step-over if it is ongoing, and unsuspend other
threads.  Without the fix in linux-low.c, GDBserver will crash in
with running gdb.base/step-over-exit.exp.

gdb/gdbserver:

2016-05-26  Yao Qi  <yao.qi@linaro.org>

	* linux-low.c (unsuspend_all_lwps): Declare.
	(linux_low_filter_event): If thread exited, call finish_step_over.
	If step-over is finished, unsuspend other threads.

gdb/testsuite:

2016-05-26  Yao Qi  <yao.qi@linaro.org>

	* gdb.base/step-over-exit.c: New.
	* gdb.base/step-over-exit.exp: New.
