[PATCH] Remove some obfuscation from ${arch}_skip_prologue functions


Hi.

This patch is a follow up to an observation made here:
https://sourceware.org/ml/gdb-patches/2014-08/msg00539.html

Basically, I think there's either or both of some
bitrot/misunderstanding in the prologue parsers.

1) There's no need to call find_pc_partial_function before
calling skip_prologue_using_sal: The first thing skip_prologue_using_sal
does is call find_pc_partial_function!
[There is another reason for ${arch}_skip_prologue routines to call
find_pc_partial_function: to find the end address of the function
to set an upper bound on how many insns to parse.  Some routines
do this, e.g., rs6000_skip_prologue, and I think some other routines
*could* do this (grep for FIXME) in the patch.  However, I have not done
this here because I wanted to restrict the patch to unobfuscation.
This patch is intended to be a functional no-op - ASSUMING my observation is
correct.]

2) Several ${arch}_skip_prologue routines call skip_prologue_using_sal
a second time if the first one fails in order to find an upper bound on
insns to scan.  I don't see how this can work:
If either find_pc_partial_function or the first call to
skip_prologue_using_sal fails, then the second call to
skip_prologue_using_sal is going to fail too.

I should also make clear that I'm totally willing to believe the
misunderstanding is mine!  I've gone through this code several times
trying to find a situation I'm missing and I can't.  Plus I've regression
tested this patch on amd64, i386, ppc64, aarch64 (and build with
--enable-targets=all).  So I think the observation is valid,
but of course the testsuite may not cover the case that
is the reason why the code is the way it is currently.
At the very least, I'd like to document Why Things Are The Way They Are
if there is indeed a reason for it.

There may still be bugs in the prologue parsers, but I would like to
unobfuscate them first.  Again, this patch is believed to be a
functional no-op, it just simplifies/unobfuscates the code.

Can I enlist any of the other arch maintainers to regression test this
there: lm32, mips, arm, nios2, tic6x, tilegx, avr, moxie, sh?
Some have simulators, so I may try to get a full toolchain going
for a few of them, though having tested this on four arches and having
all of the changes being mechanical, I'm ok with not checking all of them.

Arch maintainers I could find from the MAINTAINERS file:
mips: macro@codesourcery.com
moxie: green@moxielogic.com
nios2: yao@codesourcery.com
tic6x:yao@codesourcery.com
