[binutils-gdb] aarch64 multi-arch (part 3): get thread area


*** TEST RESULTS FOR COMMIT a0cc84cd15396df7752fe16659c01628ba729324 ***

aarch64 multi-arch (part 3): get thread area

With the kernle fix <http://lists.infradead.org/pipermail/linux-arm-kernel/2015-July/356511.html>,
aarch64 GDB is able to read the base of thread area of 32-bit arm
program through NT_ARM_TLS.

This patch is to teach both GDB and GDBserver to read the base of
thread area correctly in the multi-arch case.  A new function
aarch64_ps_get_thread_area is added, and is shared between GDB and
GDBserver.

With this patch applied, the following fails in multi-arch testing
(GDB is aarch64 but the test cases are arm) are fixed,

 -FAIL: gdb.threads/tls-nodebug.exp: thread local storage
 -FAIL: gdb.threads/tls-shared.exp: print thread local storage variable
 -FAIL: gdb.threads/tls-so_extern.exp: print thread local storage variable
 -FAIL: gdb.threads/tls-var.exp: print tls_var
 -FAIL: gdb.threads/tls.exp: first thread local storage
 -FAIL: gdb.threads/tls.exp: first another thread local storage
 -FAIL: gdb.threads/tls.exp: p a_thread_local
 -FAIL: gdb.threads/tls.exp: p file2_thread_local
 -FAIL: gdb.threads/tls.exp: p a_thread_local second time
