[PATCH PR gdb/22736] [aarch64] gdb crashes on a conditional breakpoint with cast return type


On aarch64, the (int) casting in the following causes a gdb segfault:
$ ./gdb ./gdb
(gdb) b dwarf2_physname if (int)strcmp (name, "another_thread_local") == 0
(gdb) run a.out         // use any a.out

This is due to getting a null pointer from TYPE_TARGET_TYPE, and then
using it for language_pass_by_reference().

Fixed by adding a null check, similar to other occurrences in gdb.

Tested on aarch64 with make check using unix, native_gdbserver.

Alan.

	return_type.
