[RFC] mask off is-syscall bit for TRAP_IS_SYSCALL

Hi.
On one system I use (bi-arch ubuntu-hardy clone),
i386-disp-step.exp is failing because the wait status
value linux_nat_wait_1 gets when hitting a system call is 0857f
which gets passed to the upper layers which then get confused
by a signal of 0x85 (== 0x80 | SIGTRAP).
This patch fixes things by masking off the 0x80 bit before
passing the signal number to up the call chain.
Ok to check in?

* linux-nat.c (TRAP_REMOVE_SYSCALL_FLAG): New macro.
(linux_nat_wait_1): Mask off is-syscall bit in wait status for
TRAP_IS_SYSCALL before passing value to caller.
