[RFA #2] gdb.threads/linux-dp.c: accommodate gcc 3.1


This is RFA #2 for this patch.

gcc HEAD has a new warning:

  warning: no return statement in function returning non-void

Unfortunately this breaks code in gdb.threads/linux-dp.c:

  void *
  philosopher (void *data)
  {
    ...
    for (;;)
      {
	...
      }
  }

I consider this to be a bug in gcc HEAD, and I've filed PR gcc/5725.

Meanwhile, I would like to change linux-dp.c so that it compiles.
This way we are testing linux thread support, which is more useful
than functioning as a test case for PR gcc/5725.

I tested this patch on:
