    gdbserver: move_out_of_jump_pad_callback misses switching current thread

    While hacking on the fix for PR threads/18600 (Threads left stopped
    after fork+thread spawn), I once saw its test (fork-plus-threads.exp)
    FAIL against gdbserver because move_out_of_jump_pad_callback has a
    gdb_breakpoint_here call, and the caller isn't making sure the current
    thread points to the right thread.  In the case I saw, the current
    thread pointed to the wrong process, so gdb_breakpoint_here returned
    the wrong answer.  Unfortunately I didn't save logs.  Still, seems
    obvious enough and it should fix a potential occasional racy FAIL.

    Tested on x86_64 Fedora 20.

    gdb/gdbserver/ChangeLog:
    2015-08-06  Pedro Alves  <palves@redhat.com>

        * linux-low.c (move_out_of_jump_pad_callback): Temporarily switch
        the current thread.
