Hi all,
Historically the Linux x86 watchpoint code did not cope with multi-
threaded processes and LWP IDs were passed to it wrapped as PIDs.
Not all entry points were converted when the Linux x86 watchpoint
code was made multi-thread-aware, so a handler was left in place to
cope with wrapped LWPs. Since then all such entry points have been
converted to pass regular LWPs, so the handler is now redundant.
This commit removes that handler.
Built and regtested on RHEL 6.5 x86_64.
Ok to commit?
Thanks,
Gary
